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.

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
1. Title: "A Mesmerizing Spectacle of Nature: The Common Glow-worm Female Illuminating the Meadow in Midsummer's Dusk (Lampyris noctulica)" 2.. The enchanting scene depicted in this photograph showcases the common glow-worm (Lampyris noctulica) female, illuminating the meadow in the Ural Mountains' Tchelyabinsk region of Russia, during midsummer's dusk. This creature is renowned for its unique ability to attract males through bioluminescence, emitting a soft, ethereal glow from the tip of its abdomen. Glow-worms are ancient insects with a rich history, dating back to the Carboniferous period. Their name, Lampyris, is derived from the Greek word "lampes," meaning "lamp," a fitting name for these twinkling creatures. The females' bioluminescent capabilities serve a dual purpose: not only do they attract males but also protect them from predators. As the sun sets, the female glow-worm climbs to the top of a cut grass stalk, holding on tight with her powerful legs. The combination of the fading daylight and her glowing presence creates a mesmerizing spectacle, drawing in curious males. Once a male is nearby, the female uses her pheromones to further entice him. This photograph captures the essence of the natural world's intricate beauty and the fascinating adaptations that have evolved over millions of years. It serves as a reminder of the wonders that lie hidden in our environment, waiting to be discovered.
