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.

Kangaroo Spa Day - Immature Red Kangaroo Shows Off Unique Cooling Technique in the Outback!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this adorable snapshot captured by FLPA/Jurgen & Christine Sohns, we witness a young and curious Red Kangaroo (Macropus rufus) showcasing its unconventional method of beating the scorching Australian heat. Standing confidently amidst the arid landscape of Sturt National Park in New South Wales, this little marsupial has found an ingenious way to keep cool – by licking its own arms! With temperatures soaring high, our juvenile kangaroo friend knows that staying hydrated is key. But instead of reaching for a water bottle like us humans would, it cleverly licks its furry arms to create a refreshing cooling effect. This behavior not only helps regulate body temperature but also serves as a grooming technique. As an endemic herbivore species native to Australasia, these macropods have adapted unique survival skills over time. And what better place to showcase their resilience than the vast outback? With every lick and groom, this immature kangaroo flaunts both its resourcefulness and cuteness simultaneously. So next time you're feeling hot under the collar on a sweltering day, take inspiration from our furry friend here! Remember that sometimes all it takes is a little creativity and some tongue action to beat the heat – just like our playful Red Kangaroo in Sturt National Park!
