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.

Galapagos Mockingbird - The Ultimate Hawkmoth Hunter!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible snapshot captured by renowned photographer Tui De Roy, we witness the Galapagos mockingbird (Mimus parvulus) showcasing its exceptional hunting skills. With razor-sharp focus and lightning-fast reflexes, this feisty bird effortlessly snatches a hawkmoth mid-flight in Tui's very own garden on Santa Cruz Island. Known for their resourcefulness and adaptability, Galapagos mockingbirds have evolved to thrive in these unique island ecosystems. Their ability to catch such elusive prey as the sphinx moth (also known as the hawk moth) is a testament to their remarkable agility and intelligence. As the sun sets over the enchanting Galapagos Islands, this photograph reminds us of nature's endless wonders. From the intricate patterns on the moth's wings to every feather ruffled in anticipation, it captures a moment of pure natural drama. This image not only showcases an extraordinary example of animal behavior but also highlights the importance of biodiversity conservation. The Galapagos Islands are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to countless endemic species like our clever little mocker here. So let us celebrate this awe-inspiring display of predation prowess while marveling at Mother Nature's ingenuity. Join us in raising a toast to Tui De Roy for immortalizing this stunning interaction between two fascinating creatures - proving once again that truth can indeed be stranger than fiction!
