LAKE OF STARS

I've been on Lake Malawi for ten days, filming the cichlids that have colonised the lake so efficiently. These little fish have developed very visual interactions with each other, both for territory defense as well as breeding activity.
They've adapted into every little niche beneath the surface, edging out other fish species and making Lake Malawi their own. I've been busy shooting mouth-brooding, and trying to capture the antics around the big sand spawning bowers.
