The image features a close-up view of a hardwood log with growths of black soft Hypoxylon fungus. The log is brown and appears to be weathered, indicating that it has been exposed to the elements for some time.

The main focus of the image is the growths on the log, which are dark gray or black in color. They appear to be irregularly shaped and have a rough texture. Some of these growths seem to be growing out from beneath the bark of the log.

In the background, there is what appears to be white mycelium, which suggests that this fungus may be producing spores or other reproductive structures. This could indicate that the fungus is actively growing and reproducing on the log.
