Large Bracket Polypore Fungus

A large bracket polypore fungus is attached to the side of a mature tree trunk, its shelf filling the lower frame. The cream-colored, honeycombed underside occupies the foreground while dark gray bark rises vertically and green canopy blurs against a bright sky. The sponge-like pores and small dark specks on the fungus surface are clearly visible at this close, low-angle view.
