Deep Sea Defence Mollusc Molluscs Protection Squid Squids Threat Posture Unusual


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.

FSC Real Wood Frame and Double Mounted with White Conservation Mountboard - Professionally Made and Ready to Hang

"Behold the 'Pineapple Warrior' of the deep sea - DOW-291-N, the fearless Vampire Squid from California! 🦑💪🍍 This extraordinary photo captures a rare moment when this mysterious mollusc unleashes its unique defense mechanism - transforming into an aquatic pineapple! In this underwater spectacle, our squishy superhero showcases its incredible ability to protect itself against potential threats. With lightning speed and precision, it morphs into a spiky ball resembling everyone's favorite tropical fruit. Who knew pineapples could swim? 😲 As if plucked straight out of a sci-fi movie, DOW-291-N proves that Mother Nature is full of surprises! Its mesmerizing display not only leaves us in awe but also serves as a reminder that even the most unusual creatures have their own ingenious ways to survive. Located off the coast of sunny California, this North American wonder adds another layer of intrigue to our vast oceans. Steve Downer has masterfully captured this single squid's transformational behavior for all to marvel at. So next time you're diving into the depths or simply daydreaming about marine life, remember our Pineapple Defender and let it inspire you with its resilience and creativity. After all, who knows what other hidden talents lie beneath those ocean waves?" 🌊🍹
