23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Nature's Clean-up Crew - Meet the Darkling Beetle, the Ultimate Litter Buster!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by Alan Weaving in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa, we witness a remarkable scene straight out of Mother Nature's playbook. The star of the show is none other than ASW-4545, a charismatic Darkling Beetle on an important mission. With its sleek black exoskeleton and delicate antennae poised for action, this ground-dwelling beetle takes center stage as it fearlessly feasts on plant litter scattered across the forest floor. Armed with an insatiable appetite for organic debris, our tiny hero plays a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance. But that's not all! As if being nature's clean-up crew wasn't impressive enough, ASW-4545 also showcases its resourcefulness by sampling an empty insect pupal case nearby. Talk about multitasking! This incredible photograph reminds us of the intricate web of life that exists beneath our feet. From beetles to bugs and everything in between, these unsung heroes silently work their magic to keep ecosystems thriving. So next time you stumble upon fallen leaves or decaying matter during your outdoor adventures, take a moment to appreciate these miniature marvels hard at work – just like ASW-4545 here in beautiful South Africa. After all, even insects deserve their moment in the spotlight!
