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.

Whale Shark - The Ultimate Rideshare Experience with Remora Hitchhikers!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible snapshot captured by Alex Mustard, we witness the ultimate aquatic hitchhiking adventure! A massive female whale shark, measuring an impressive 13-15 meters in length, gracefully glides through the crystal-clear waters of Wolf Island in Galapagos National Park. But wait, what's that on her tail? It's a group of cheeky remoras (Remora sp. ) who have found themselves the perfect ride! These clever little fish have discovered a genius way to travel effortlessly across the ocean - by hitching a ride on one of nature's largest and most gentle giants. With their suction cup-like dorsal fins securely attached to the whale shark's majestic tail, they can enjoy a leisurely cruise while taking advantage of all its mighty movements. It seems like these remoras have mastered the art of being savvy travelers as they hold on tight to their enormous host. Perhaps they're exchanging stories about their underwater adventures or simply enjoying the breathtaking view together. This extraordinary photograph not only showcases nature's remarkable symbiotic relationships but also reminds us that even in the vastness of our oceans, unexpected friendships can be formed. So next time you're looking for an unforgettable journey, why not take inspiration from these adventurous hitchhikers and seek out your own unique rideshare experience?
