Wildlife Photographer of the Year: LUMIX People's Choice shortlist Stefan-Christmann-Wildlife-Photographer-of-the-Year.jpg

Training session by Stefan Christmann, Germany When Stefan came across this penguin couple in Atka Bay, Antarctica, seemingly with an egg, he was surprised as it was too early in the season for egg-laing. Upon closer inspection he discovered the egg was a snowball! Perhaps the diligent couple were practicing egg transfer in preparation for when their real egg arrived. This is possibly the first time it has ever been witnessed and documented. Stefan Christmann
