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.

Leaf-cutter Ants - The Ultimate Team Players in the Underground Fungus Garden!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the leaf-cutter ants (Atta cephalotes) showcasing their incredible strength and teamwork as they transport pieces of harvested leaves back to their underground fungus garden. With precision and determination, these tiny arthropods demonstrate nature's true powerhouses. Against a crisp white background in a mobile field studio, this digital composite image captures the essence of these fascinating creatures. Their vibrant presence against the plain backdrop highlights their importance within Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula, a Latin American biodiversity hotspot. As each ant carries its leafy burden with unwavering dedication, it becomes evident that no task is too big for this industrious group. Together, they form an animal colony like no other – united by a common goal to nourish and sustain their fungal haven. The sheer scale of this operation showcases not only the remarkable behavior of these leaf cutter ants but also serves as a reminder of the intricate web of life found within our natural world. From plant to insect to fungus, every element plays its part in maintaining balance and harmony. So let us marvel at these tireless workers who effortlessly blend strength with cooperation. They remind us that even in the tiniest corners of our planet lies extraordinary beauty and resilience – all waiting to be discovered through Alex Hyde's lens!
