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 Single Peregrine Falcon Chick Perseveres in the Arctic: A Symbol of Nature's Resilience. This evocative image captures the determination and tenacity of a single Peregrine Falcon chick, nesting on a precarious rocky bank of the icy Maksimovka River in the Taimyr Peninsula, North of Siberia, Russian Arctic. The Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), a versatile and powerful raptor, is known for its aerial prowess and agility. However, this year, due to the natural fluctuation in the population of their primary food source, lemmings, the chick finds itself alone in its nest. The Peregrine Falcon's diet primarily consists of birds, mammals, and reptiles, making them apex predators in their ecosystem. The abundance of lemmings, their preferred prey, significantly impacts the population growth of these birds. In years with low lemming populations, such as this one, Peregrine Falcon chicks may struggle to survive. Despite the challenges, this young Peregrine Falcon chick perseveres, relying on its innate instincts and the resilience of its species. The historical significance of Peregrine Falcons as symbols of power and agility is evident in their continued presence in the harsh Arctic environment. This image serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the habitats of these magnificent birds and the delicate balance of nature. The Taimyr Peninsula, located in the Russian Arctic, is a remote and unforgiving landscape, yet it is home to a diverse array of wildlife, including the Peregrine Falcon. This image offers a glimpse into the life of these remarkable birds and the challenges they face in their natural habitat. In conclusion, this photograph of a solitary Peregrine Falcon chick in its Arctic nest is a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of nature's most remarkable creatures. It serves as a testament to the importance of preserving their habitats and ensuring their continued survival.
