These penguins jetting underwater won wildlife photographer Paul Nicklen the title of Veolia Environmental Wildlife Photographer of the Year. 

“It was a fantastic sight, as hundreds launched themselves out of the water and onto the ice above me,” he recalled, “a moment that I felt incredibly fortunate to witness and one I’ll never forget.”
