EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the Bracket fungus, scientifically known as Daedaleopsis confragosa. The close-up shot reveals the mesmerizing underside of this species, also referred to as Blushing bracket fungus due to its delicate hues. The focus is on the pores that adorn its surface, which serve as the openings for spore production within the tubes. Nature enthusiasts and botany lovers will be enthralled by this detailed depiction of a biological wonder. This image highlights not only the unique structure and form of this fungal organism but also provides insight into its role in parasitic relationships with trees. As a shelf-like parasite, it attaches itself to tree trunks or branches, forming a single fruiting body that stands out against its surroundings. The thin-walled maze polypore variation known as var tricolor adds an extra layer of intrigue to this already fascinating subject matter. Mycologists and biologists alike will appreciate how this photograph captures both scientific precision and aesthetic appeal. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an exceptional visual representation from their extensive collection, showcasing nature's diversity through botanical marvels like these fungi. This print is perfect for anyone seeking a deeper understanding and appreciation for our natural world without mentioning any commercial use associated with Science Photo Library's work.
