Hi, It should be possible to retrieve the data: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/6431496.
My mapfile have nothing special. I use OpenLayers, therefor the map is build from a couple of tiles and not a single image, but that should not cause any problems or is this the point of your hint.

Jsubei, The problem that occurs in cases like yours is that MapServer reprojects your map rectangle into lat/long (EPSG:4326) in order to do a spatial query on the vector features. But it reprojects the rectangle by reprojecting a bunch of points around the edge of the rectangle, and using the result to get a bounding rectangle in the target projection. But unfortunately none of the locations around the edge of your pole centered projection are very far north so the resulting bounding box query misses most of the data. My suggestion is to just reproject the shoreline vectors in advance into your polar projection. If you really want to do it the way you have it setup, then the code to look at to improve the rectangle reprojection logic is msProjectRect() in mapproject.c. You will see it first tries to reproject points around the edge. If any of those fail it will reproject a sampling of points within the rectangle to compute bounds. You could modify this to always sample in the box for your build for instance by initializing 'failure' to 1 instead of 0.
