Are you good at taking photos?

Caroline Williams Reporter from Stuff

Hi Aucklanders. Today marks the start of the Auckland Festival of Photography, with exhibitions being held at galleries around the region. Anyone with access to a camera, including phone cameras, has the opportunity to take part in the festival with the Nikon Auckland Photo Day competition. Just take a photo at any time on June 8 that showcases your slice of Auckland. The photo can be anything you want, including snaps of friends and family. All entries will be stored in a unique archive that currently has over 15,000 photos dating back to 2004. An exhibition of last year's top 30 entries is on display at the waterfront of Te Wero Island.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
