squidfish Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Hi Its a while since I have photographed my fish and a s my Labeotropheus was showing some nice colours I thought it about time to break out the flashes. For a change I tried the Lightsphere on the flexible arm flash but not sure it offered much benefit although may just need some more experimentation. This Labeotrpheus fuelleborni is from Katale Island on the west coast of Lake Malawi. He has been creating a spawning area by removing pieces of gravel You have to work quite hard with him as he can change colour quite rapidly but sometimes he just shines Cheers Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camo Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Hey Always good to view your fish photography mate. Fantastic shots. Cheers Cameron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTR73 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Wow! Great picks. The Labeotropheus fuelleborni (Katale) will get even more yellow/orange in him as he gets older, won't he? Looks sensational now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Wombat Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Great stuff Rich, Looks like you got the lightspere going pretty well. I love how you have controlled the difficult exposure in #1 with the white substrate and dark rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
