Aphid Aphids Mass Masses Pest Sticky With Flowers Sugary
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 Sweet Tooth - Aphid Party at the Water Lily Buffet!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Dave Bevan, we witness a scene straight out of an insect carnival. It seems that BB-1375, also known as the mischievous Water Lily Aphids, have taken over both the delicate flowers and lush leaves of nymphaea spp. These tiny plant juice suckers are having a sugary feast like no other! Gathered in large groups or masses, these aphids create a mesmerizing sight against the vibrant backdrop of blooming flowers. With their sticky secretions glistening under sunlight, it almost appears as if they've transformed into sparkling jewels. But don't be fooled by their innocent appearance! These wildlife insects may be small individually, but together they form an unstoppable force. They're notorious for infesting plants and causing havoc in gardens worldwide. Yet amidst all the chaos they bring to our beloved water lilies, there is something strangely fascinating about this photograph. It captures nature's intricate balance between beauty and pestilence—a reminder that even pests can possess a certain charm when observed from afar. So next time you stumble upon a mass gathering of aphids on your favorite flower bed, take a moment to appreciate their unique role in our ecosystem—just make sure they stay away from your own garden!
