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.

Battle of the Ladybirds - A Drama Unfolds in Kent's Garden!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness a fierce encounter between two Harlequin Ladybird larvae. The leafy battleground in Belvedere, Bexley sets the stage for an intense clash of nature's titans. With their vibrant colors and intricate patterns, these young European invaders from Asia engage in a high-stakes battle for dominance. One larva launches a surprise attack on its unsuspecting counterpart, showcasing the aggressive behavior that has made this species notorious across England. As tensions rise under the summer sun, it becomes clear that harmony is far from their agenda. This invasive arthropod duo brings an exotic touch to Kent's temperate landscape but also sparks conflict among native insects. Their introduction into English gardens has disrupted the delicate balance of wildlife as they assert their dominance over other ladybird species. As Londoners marvel at these alien creatures' aggression, one cannot help but be captivated by this enthralling display of insect warfare. Will the attacked larva retaliate? Or will peace eventually prevail amidst all this chaos? FLPA photographer Dave Pressland masterfully captures both the beauty and brutality within our natural world through his lens. This print serves as a reminder that even in our own backyards, incredible stories unfold every day – if only we take a moment to observe them closely!
