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.

Bone Appetit! Lammergeier's Fine Dining Experience in the Pyrenees
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness a majestic Lammergeier, also known as the Bearded Vulture, indulging in a sumptuous feast. With its impressive wingspan and regal demeanor, this adult bird of prey has found itself a delectable carrion treat. As it perches on the rugged mountainside of Spain's Pyrenees, our feathered connoisseur wastes no time savoring every morsel. Its sharp beak delicately picks at a small bone before swiftly swallowing it whole. Talk about having an appetite for adventure! The Lammergeier is renowned for its unique feeding habits – it prefers to dine on bones rather than flesh like other vultures. This peculiar taste makes them nature's very own "bone cleaners" playing an essential role in maintaining ecological balance. With its distinctive plumage and piercing gaze, this European beauty stands out among its avian counterparts. The breathtaking scenery surrounding our protagonist only adds to the allure of this wildlife spectacle. So next time you find yourself hiking through the picturesque Pyrenees or simply admiring nature from afar, keep your eyes peeled for these magnificent creatures soaring above. Who knows? You might just catch them enjoying another fine dining experience amidst their mountainous kingdom!
