Photo: Cristobal Serrano
Cristobal Serrano of Spain is the Overall Winner in the 2018 German Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest. The photographer flew his drone high above huge flocks of Lesser Flamingos (Phoeniconaias minor) on the muddy banks of Lake Bogaria in Kenya. Because of the dry season, salts and minerals from the volcanic subsoil are highly concentrated, creating rich colours visible from the air, contrasting with the array of pink dots of flamingos.
