EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a woman lovingly shades her child while inspecting a bountiful fish haul drying in the sun. The scene takes place on the shores of Lake Malawi, a natural wonder stretching an impressive 363 miles and covering one fifth of Malawi's territory. Known for its incredible biodiversity, Lake Malawi boasts the most diverse fish fauna of any lake worldwide. With nearly six hundred species residing within its waters, the majority being unique cichlids found nowhere else on Earth, this magnificent lake provides an essential source of sustenance for the local population. In fact, these indigenous fish species contribute to a staggering 70% of their protein requirements. The woman's traditional umbrella offers respite from the scorching African sun as she carefully inspects each dried fish. This staple food is crucial to sustaining communities in southern Malawi like Liwonde where this image was captured. Dried fish, known as capenta locally, represents not only nourishment but also cultural heritage and culinary tradition passed down through generations. This powerful photograph by NP from Discover Images by AWL captures both the beauty and significance of Lake Malawi's rich aquatic resources in supporting livelihoods and providing vital sustenance for indigenous people across Africa.
