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 Hungry Little Avengers - Millipede Assassin Nymphs on a Feeding Frenzy!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the incredible sight of Ectrichodia crux, also known as the Millipede Assassin nymphs, indulging in their favorite delicacy - millipedes! These young nocturnal predators from South Africa are forming an unstoppable group to satisfy their insatiable appetite. With their vibrant colors and voracious appetites, these tiny assassins prove that size doesn't matter when it comes to being a top predator. As they feast upon the unsuspecting millipedes, one can almost imagine them rubbing their little hands together with mischievous glee! The scene is reminiscent of a wildlife version of "The Avengers" where these fearless insect heroes band together to eliminate any threat posed by the abundant millipede population. With each bite they take, they demonstrate nature's perfect balance between predator and prey. This extraordinary snapshot showcases not only the beauty and diversity of African insects but also highlights the intricate web of life that exists within our natural world. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly small creatures like bugs, there is immense power and resilience. So next time you come across a millipede or catch sight of an insect scurrying about your garden, remember these fascinating Millipede Assassin nymphs who fearlessly roam the wild plains of South Africa – forever ready for another mealtime adventure!
