Shiitake Log on Gobi Cliff Edge in along a salt-sprayed cliff edge in the Gobi Desert

Shiitake Log on Gobi Cliff Edge

by Bette Moses

Rough, grey-barked wood supports clusters of dark brown shiitake mushrooms along a salt-sprayed cliff edge. The log rests horizontally against pale, wind-eroded rock faces. Heavy, flat grey clouds fill the sky above, diffusing the bright afternoon light into soft shadows across the textured fungi caps. Fine white salt crystals dust the bark and the surrounding stone surface. The dense forest setting contrasts with the arid, scrubby ground visible at the cliff's base. One mushroom cap reflects the dull sky, showing a smooth, moist surface against the dry, cracked wood.
