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.

Underwater Buffet - Manta Ray's Feeding Frenzy with Friends!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Kurt Amsler, we witness the incredible feeding mode of KA-71, a majestic Manta Ray in the Maldives' crystal-clear Indian Ocean waters. With its gill slits distended and mouth wide open, KA-71 is ready to indulge in a sumptuous underwater feast! But wait! It's not just any ordinary mealtime for our graceful ray friend. Surrounding KA-71 are an array of other marine creatures eager to join the party. Mixed species gather around, forming a vibrant community that celebrates their shared love for scrumptious treats. As KA-71 glides effortlessly through the water, it showcases its mesmerizing underside - a sight rarely seen by human eyes. Its head and face reveal intricate patterns and markings that add to its allure. The scene becomes even more enchanting as remoras hitchhike on KA-71's back, taking advantage of this gentle giant's presence to catch some morsels themselves. Talk about smart teamwork! Kurt Amsler has truly captured nature at its most fascinating moment – where food brings together different species in harmony beneath the waves. This extraordinary photograph reminds us of the wonders hidden within our oceans and invites us to appreciate the beauty found when diverse creatures come together for a delicious mealtime extravaganza!
