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 Green Cloud - The Epic Gathering of Pea Aphids!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Steve Hopkin, witness the extraordinary sight of a colossal swarm of pea aphids, also known as greenflies, taking over the United Kingdom. These tiny insects have come together in such massive numbers that they create an awe-inspiring spectacle resembling a fluffy green cloud. Acyrthosiphon pisum, the scientific name for these mischievous critters, may be considered pests to some gardeners and farmers due to their insatiable appetite for plants. However, there's no denying their ability to unite and form an impressive colony. Amongst this buzzing crowd are adult aphids guiding their young ones through life's adventures. Spotting baby aphids or nymphs adds an adorable touch to this otherwise overwhelming scene. It seems like even in the insect world, family bonds are strong! This photograph serves as a reminder of nature's incredible diversity and showcases how seemingly insignificant creatures can come together to create something truly remarkable. So next time you encounter a few pesky greenflies in your garden, remember that they too have the power to amaze when united in great numbers!
