Nature in my Backyard 4. People and Nature 5. Accommodating Nature within Cities. Send us your best, most evocative, interesting and thought provoking photographs in each of these themes! Four selected photographs from each category will be exhibited in Bangalore, during the first week of October, along with a series of events on urban biodiversity and nature. The selected photographs will also be exhibited in Hyderabad during the second week of October, at the eleventh meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP 11) to the United Nation's Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) (http://www.cbd.int/cop/). Think about it: if selected, your photographs will have the chance to be seen and discussed by the hundreds of government officials, policy makers and other delegates from around the world who will attend COP11.
