Antarctic Crustacean Crustaceans Krill Microscopic Transparent Superba
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

Tiny but Mighty - Antarctic Krill Squad Strikes a Pose!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this close-up, we witness the incredible camaraderie of four Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba) as they swim together in perfect synchrony. These translucent crustaceans may be small in size, but their impact on the marine ecosystem is colossal! With their delicate bodies and vibrant orange hues, these little critters are like underwater gems sparkling amidst the icy depths of Antarctica. Their transparent appearance allows us to marvel at their intricate internal structures, revealing a world unseen by the naked eye. As key players in the Southern Ocean's food chain, these krill provide sustenance for an array of magnificent creatures such as fishes and other marine species. It's no wonder they're often referred to as "the lifeblood of Antarctica". Caught in this snapshot by Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment, we can't help but imagine what fascinating adventures lie beneath those chilly waters. Perhaps these krill are discussing their next synchronized swimming routine or planning an epic journey across vast oceanic landscapes. So let's raise our imaginary magnifying glasses and salute these microscopic heroes! They remind us that even the tiniest beings can have a profound impact on our planet's biodiversity. Let this print serve as a reminder to appreciate nature's wonders both big and small – after all, it’s always better when we stick together!
