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.

Snowball Brawl - European Starlings Battle for the Tastiest Apple in Alsace!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by M. Watson, a winter wonderland unfolds as feisty European starlings engage in an epic snow squabble over a juicy apple. As if on cue, these mischievous garden birds have transformed into fierce competitors, ready to defend their claim to this fruity treasure. Perched amidst the frosty backdrop of Alsace, France, these vibrant creatures showcase their stunning plumage while showcasing some serious attitude. With feathers fluffed against the cold and beaks poised for action, it's clear that no bird is backing down from this snowy showdown. As they gather in groups or flocks - known as murmurations - these starlings exhibit fascinating behavior patterns. The image captures not only their feeding frenzy but also highlights their social dynamics and intricate communication skills. The clash between nature's elements adds an extra layer of drama to this already intense scene. Snowflakes dance around them like confetti while icy patches create slippery battlegrounds where every step counts. Witnessing such confrontations among wildlife reminds us of the raw beauty and resilience found within nature's realm. So next time you spot a group of European starlings bickering over apples during wintertime, remember that even birds know how to make snow days more exciting!
