Zoom meetings have quickly become a way of life for millions of people. Everything from work meetings to birthday celebrations are now happening online as we all practice social distancing. So why not have a little fun with it? We’ve created a series of video and photo backgrounds from around Sydney and NSW that you can download and use for free.
