"Global Warming Witness - Mitsuaki Iwago Special"
The Second GWW Photo Contest
- Nature and Wildlife You Want to Protect -
Olympus Corporation (President: Tsuyoshi Kikukawa) is to stage an international amateur photo contest in conjunction with its Global Warming Witness - Mitsuaki Iwago Special (GWW) website.
The contest, giving site users themselves the opportunity to become global warming witnesses, will take as its theme "Nature and Wildlife You Want to Protect"*1. Olympus hopes that entering the contest will give more people a feel for the changes occurring in their immediate surroundings, and the priceless nature of much we take for granted. The contest this year will be run according to an open format, with all entries received*2 to be displayed on the website.
