17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of an algal bloom in a woodland pond located in Berkshire, England. The vibrant hues of green and blue paint a picturesque scene that showcases the wonders of nature's intricate ecosystems. The stunning display is likely caused by blue-green algae, scientifically known as Cyanobacteria. These microscopic organisms thrive in aquatic environments and can sometimes lead to algal blooms due to eutrophication - an excess of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Despite their aesthetic appeal, algal blooms can be indicative of pollution and environmental imbalances. This photograph serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between human activities and the natural world we inhabit. Situated amidst the serene countryside, this woodland pond exemplifies Britain's rich biodiversity. It is within these enchanting woodlands that one can truly appreciate the harmonious coexistence between plants, bacteria, and other biological entities. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this snapshot from nature's canvas, showcasing not only its artistic value but also its scientific significance. Through this image, we are reminded to cherish our environment while striving for sustainable practices that preserve its beauty for generations to come.
