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.

Nature's Extraterrestrial Beauty - The Enigmatic Dance of the Long-Tongued Moth and Darwin's Orchid
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness a mesmerizing rendezvous between two extraordinary creatures - the long-tongued moth and Darwin's Orchid. Found in the mystical lands of Ambila, Madagascar, this enchanting species has been immortalized through the lens of Barrie Britton for BBC Wild Madagascar Series. As if plucked from another planet, this orchid boasts an otherworldly elegance with its star-shaped petals reaching towards the heavens. Its delicate white hue glistens under the warm sunlight, illuminating nature's artistry at its finest. But what truly sets this botanical marvel apart is its unique relationship with a long-tongued moth. With tongues extending far beyond their bodies, these ethereal insects are perfectly designed to pollinate Darwin's Orchid. A dance of symbiotic harmony unfolds as they delicately collect pollen while sipping nectar from each intricate flowerhead. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also embodies growth and optimism found within our natural world. The geometric shapes formed by these three objects create a visual symphony that celebrates life’s diversity and beauty. Let us revel in the wonders that lie within Earth’s biodiversity hotspots like Madagascar – where flora and fauna intertwine to create breathtaking spectacles such as this one. So take a moment to immerse yourself in nature’s splendor; let it ignite your imagination and remind you of our shared connection with all living things.
