wwp@yahoogroups.com: Forest event Caroling Geary 2011-Mar-07 13:11:00
I had only looked at the March event and missed the announcement of  
the year-long Forest event, I think. Although the UN website looks  
familiar:
http://www.un.org/forests/

You have no rules about the forest submission. Can it be any pano,  
made anytime?

The UN didn't have a photo contest but they had a film contest that  
ended in 2010. Perhaps some of their categories will be inspiring for  
panoramas Here they are:

360 Degrees on All Things Forest:  Awarded to the film that best  
communicates humanity's social, cultural, economic or spiritual  
interconnectivity to forests.

Living Forests:  Awarded to the film that most effectively showcases  
the rich diversity and complexity of the forest ecosystem.

Issues & Solutions:  Awarded to the film that most effectively  
communicates solutions to environmental and sustainability issues  
facing forests and all its inhabitants, including people.

Forest Hero:  Awarded to the film that most effectively celebrates  
the work of individuals or groups committed to forest research and  
sustainability.

?This is my forest?: Awarded to the film that tells the story of the  
forest, captures the best or most moving personal experience with  
forests, whether it?s in your backyard, in the city or in the  
country, that mean the most to you.

There is also an interesting site called the "United Nations Forum on  
Forests":
