Camouflaged Deception Hiding Praying Mantis
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 Master of Disguise - The Praying Mantis Strikes a Pose!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Alan Weaving, we witness the enchanting beauty of ASW-3240, a female praying mantis showcasing her remarkable camouflage skills. With an air of mystery and deception, she effortlessly blends into her surroundings like a true master artist. This single lady insect knows how to make heads turn with her unique fashion sense. Her delicate body is adorned in shades of green and brown, expertly mimicking the foliage around her. It's as if she has donned an invisible cloak that renders her virtually undetectable to unsuspecting prey. With eyes wide open and front legs poised for action, our lovely mantis seems ready to pounce on any unwary insects who dare cross her path. She embodies both grace and stealth in equal measure – a true femme fatale of the insect world! As we marvel at this incredible photograph from Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment, it serves as a gentle reminder that nature never ceases to amaze us with its hidden wonders. So next time you take a stroll through your garden or venture into the wilderness, keep your eyes peeled for these elusive creatures; they may be watching you too!
