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.

Midnight Feast - Black Necked Grebe Shows Mosquitoes Who's Boss!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by wildlife photographer David Pattyn, a black necked grebe takes center stage as it showcases its exceptional foraging skills under the cover of darkness. This adult bird fearlessly dives into the inky depths of a freshwater lake in the Netherlands, skillfully navigating through rippled waters to catch its prey. With an air of mystery surrounding it, this avian predator stealthily hunts down mosquitoes that dare to disturb the tranquility of the night. As if performing an intricate dance routine on water, the grebe elegantly glides across the surface with arty shots created by ripples forming around its agile body. Marching to its own rhythm, this highly commended photograph from Asferico Awards 2017 perfectly captures nature's harmonious balance between predator and prey. The eared grebe's determination is palpable as it demonstrates how even in darkness, life finds a way to thrive. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we can't help but marvel at both nature's beauty and resilience. So next time you find yourself swatting away pesky mosquitoes during a summer evening stroll, remember that somewhere out there in the wilds of Western Europe, a black necked grebe is gracefully feasting on these bothersome insects - proving once again that Mother Nature always has her own ingenious solutions!
