Romanian photographer Nicu Spanu has won the SONY Romania National Award for a photograph he took in Bucovina. The photograph is called The Boot and shows an area lived by welcoming people and by wonderful landscapes.

Spanu was inspired by this holiday and he used a drone to take a photo of the area.
