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.

Whale-y Close Encounter - When Whales Meet Cargo Ships!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible snapshot captured by M. Watson, we witness a fascinating encounter between two worlds - the majestic marine mammals and the bustling commercial industry. As if posing for a perfect photo op, a pod of Pilot Whales gracefully swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Strait of Gibraltar, with an enormous cargo ship looming behind them. These toothed whales showcase their impressive size as they navigate through their natural habitat, reminding us of the sheer magnificence that lies beneath the ocean's surface. It's hard not to be awestruck by their sleek bodies gliding effortlessly through the water. However, this image also serves as a gentle reminder of our responsibility towards these endangered creatures. With human encroachment threatening their existence, it is crucial that we strive to protect and conserve these rare species. As we admire this breathtaking scene, let's take a moment to appreciate both nature's wonders and man-made marvels. The contrast between these intelligent marine mammals and the colossal cargo ship emphasizes just how diverse our world can be. So next time you find yourself near Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment gallery or admiring your own wildlife prints collection at home, remember to cherish every glimpse into nature's beauty – where even unlikely encounters like this one can leave us in awe!
