This year’s annual kowhai photo competition was open to digital entries and – in a first for us – winners can be voted for by you.

This competition is held annually and has been running for many years. It’s organised by the Te Kowhai Community Group and is intended to draw people’s attention to the tree from which our village gets its name.

The community group selected the finalists for each of the four categories and the winners... well, that's up to you!

There will be four polls here on Neighbourly. Three for each age category and one containing all the finalists for overall peoples' choice.

A prize of $50 will be awarded for the winner of each category. But obviously it’s not about the money it’s about being world famous in Te Kowhai and being able to boast having the BEST photograph for the year.

Here's the first category - the 12 and under. There's $50 up for grabs for the person who took the photo that receives the most votes.

This was a tough decision by the judges as there were plenty of photos - all of them incredibly good. What a talented buch of kids there are in Te Kowhai!

Look out for the other 3 in your newsfeed and vote on each category.

Voting closes on 11 November.
