Amateur photographer and bus driver, Attila Tompa, has won the title of Photographer of the Year from among more than a million nominees in an international photo competition organized by a Chinese tech company.

Attila Tompa has won the Chinese tech company, Huawei’s mobile photography contest with a photo of his mother-in-law and his daughter, RTL Klub reports. The motto of this year’s competition was “better together.” Tompa, who works as a bus driver, said he thought he won because of Covid. In the past, the virus meant that the elderly and children didn’t get to meet, and his picture captures the reading of a fairy tale together.
