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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this shot captured by FLPA photographer Neil Bowman, we witness the stunning beauty of an adult female Shikra perched gracefully on a palm frond. With her piercing eyes fixed on something intriguing, she exudes an air of mystery and power. This feisty raptor hails from the tropical paradise of Sri Lanka, where it reigns as one of nature's most skilled predators. Known for its agility and precision in flight, the Shikra is truly a force to be reckoned with in the avian world. Against the backdrop of lush green leaves, this majestic bird showcases its African-Asian heritage with pride. Its elegant feathers blend seamlessly with the vibrant foliage, creating a picture-perfect harmony between creature and environment. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine what adventures lie ahead for our fierce feathered friend. Will she swoop down upon her unsuspecting prey? Or perhaps she'll take flight into the vast blue sky above? Whatever destiny awaits her amidst these enchanting palm trees, one thing is certain – this adult female Shikra embodies strength and grace like no other. So let us celebrate her wild spirit as she rules over Sri Lanka's tropical realm!
