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.

Jacana's Underwater Adventure - A Masterclass in Foraging!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by the talented photographer Bill Coster, we witness an African Jacana adult embarking on a daring quest for food beneath the waterlily leaf. With its vibrant plumage and graceful stance, this wader from West Africa showcases its incredible adaptability in the Gambian wetlands. As if defying gravity, our feathered friend fearlessly treads upon the floating lily pad, delicately maneuvering through shallow waters with astonishing precision. Its long legs and slender beak are perfectly designed for this underwater escapade. With February's gentle breeze caressing its feathers, our aquatic adventurer skillfully navigates through a maze of emerald leaves to find hidden treasures below. The lush tropical surroundings provide an idyllic backdrop as it gracefully plucks insects and small crustaceans from their watery hideouts. This remarkable display of nature's ingenuity reminds us that life can thrive even in seemingly inhospitable environments. The African Jacana proves that where there is water and abundant foliage, there is sustenance waiting to be discovered! So take a moment to marvel at this enchanting scene captured forever on print—a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of wildlife in Gambia's wetlands. Let it inspire you to embrace your own adventurous spirit and dive into new experiences with unwavering determination!
