17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

Double the Fun: Underwater Odd Couple Sticks Together in French Polynesia!". In this extraordinary snapshot captured by renowned photographers Ron & Valerie Taylor, we witness a truly remarkable sight that has left marine biologists scratching their heads. Meet VT-8650, the dynamic duo of remoras engaging in an unprecedented display of camaraderie off the coast of Tumotos, French Polynesia. The image showcases a juvenile remora boldly hitching a ride on the back of its more experienced counterpart. This peculiar behavior has rarely been observed before and adds another fascinating layer to our understanding of these sucker fish's social dynamics. As if straight out of a buddy comedy film, this unlikely pair defies expectations and proves that even underwater friendships can be formed between generations. The mature remora seems unperturbed by its younger companion's presence, embracing it as they navigate through tropical waters with ease. French Polynesia's crystal-clear oceanic backdrop provides the perfect canvas for showcasing this unusual bond. With vibrant coral reefs and exotic marine life surrounding them, these two charming creatures remind us that nature always finds ways to surprise and delight us. So next time you find yourself exploring the depths of our vast oceans or simply admiring breathtaking wildlife photography like this one, remember VT-8650 - a heartwarming reminder that sometimes sticking together is not just reserved for humans but also extends beneath the waves.
