This image captures a close-up, top-down view of a retail display featuring two distinct types of dried fungi, observed within a commercial establishment in Zhongyuan District, China. The scene is static, devoid of people or direct interactions. The frame is horizontally bisected by a clear vertical divider. To the left, a dense mass of pale beige to off-white, intricately ruffled, dried fungi, consistent with Tremella fuciformis (white fungus), occupies approximately half of the display area. The individual pieces exhibit a brain-like, undulating texture. To the right of the divider, a large pile of dark brown to grayish-black dried mushrooms is displayed. These mushrooms vary in shape and size, appearing shriveled with discernible caps and stems, indicative of dried edible varieties. Above these two displays, a horizontal wooden element is visible, likely part of a shelf or display structure. A thin, silver-colored metal rod or rack is attached to this wooden element, with transparent plastic bags containing granular or powdered substances partially visible in the background, out of focus. The lighting is uniform, highlighting the textures and colors of the dried goods.
