From the first cautious steps in the Great Rift Valley, humans have adapted to the challenges of Africa. Today it lies divided into more nations than any other continent.
But as shown by this satellite-derived map, landscapes that ignore national borders form a mosaic of ecosystems that subtly blend one into the other -- from the temperate Mediterranean through desert and scattered croplands to forest, swamp, and savanna -- each with its own rules for life.

Gloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
