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.

Caught in a Sticky Situation - The Epic Battle of the 7-Spot Ladybird and the Spider
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this thrilling wildlife encounter, we witness the incredible struggle between two formidable opponents - a brave 7-spot ladybird and a cunning spider. As fate would have it, our courageous ladybird finds herself entangled in an intricate spider web, her vibrant red spots contrasting against the delicate silk threads. But fear not! Our tiny hero is no ordinary insect. With its unique defense mechanism called "autobleeding" this ladybird has a secret weapon up its sleeve (or should we say wing?). When threatened or trapped like now, it releases foul-tasting blood from its joints to deter predators - talk about playing dirty! As she valiantly fights for her freedom, you can almost hear her battle cry echoing through the air. Will she manage to outwit her eight-legged adversary? Or will she become another victim of nature's merciless cycle? This snapshot captures not just a single moment frozen in time but also tells an entire story of survival and resilience. It reminds us that even in the face of certain death, every creature possesses an indomitable spirit. So join us on this wild journey as we root for our spotted friend and hope that she emerges victorious from this deadly dance with destiny!
