Perhaps a second hand, shop, if you're lucky enough to find one! If you consider the cost of getting anything framed, these days, your first question has to be "how does he do it?" Well, it's simple, I found a source of very attractive, but inexpensive, frames which look very much like the basic black metal frames that most of us are so fond of for our own shots. I then went out and bought a mat cutter and mat board and learned how to do the whole thing myself! (I'd checked with a dozen or more framers and none of them would do the framing for as little as I sell my framed prints! And that's in lots of a dozen at a time!) One word of caution, however. If you have been thinking of buying one of my prints, you might want to consider doing so, now. You see, I'm running very low on these really neat, yet inexpensive frames. I've found just 7 more, in a local shop, but have been unable to find any more, in nearly a year of looking; and my original supplier has gone out of business. This is compounded by the fact that the BC Wildlife Park is taking 12 today, and another 12 in three weeks.. and I have less than a case (48) left! When the frames are gone, I will have to switch to metal frames, which will add up to $30 to my $59 price, just to cover the cost of the frame! OTOH, please be aware that any orders placed now, will not be filled until mid-April, as we will be away, at our daughter's wedding, after Monday. See: http://www.telyt.50megs.com/travel.htm There are 30 different photos available and you can see them all, at: www.telyt.com Visa & Mastercard accepted though PayPal. BTW: If you have the need, publication rights to most of these photos can now be purchased at: http://tinyurl.com/2amll4 - but the genuine article costs considerably less!
