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
This electron micrograph image reveals the intricate details of Varroa jacobsoni, also known as the honey bee mite. A member of the acarine order within the class Arachnida, this mite is a parasitic arachnid that feeds on the hemolymph of honey bees (Apis mellifera). The image showcases the mite's eight legs, two pairs of which are visible in this view, as well as its hairy body covered in tiny setae. The Varroa jacobsoni mite is an external parasite that attaches itself to the bee's body, primarily targeting adult bees and developing brood. The mite's presence can lead to various health issues for the bee colony, including the spread of viruses and the weakening of the bees. This image, captured by Chris Jones and Alex Ball, provides a unique glimpse into the microscopic world of these fascinating arthropods. As part of the suborder Dermanyssina, the honey bee mite belongs to the class Insecta, which includes insects, and the class Hexapoda, which comprises hexapods. The mite's presence in the honey bee colony is a critical issue for beekeepers, as it can significantly impact honey production and the overall health of the bee population. The intricate details of the Varroa jacobsoni mite's structure, as depicted in this electron micrograph, reveal the complex relationship between this arachnid and its honey bee host. This image serves as a reminder of the intricacies of the natural world and the importance of understanding the interactions between different species.
