Eleanora briefly squeezed between parents for photo (8)

I believe the answer is:

panorama

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'eleanora briefly' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'squeezed between parents for photo' is the wordplay.
'squeezed between' indicates putting letters inside.
'parents' becomes 'pama' (Pa and Ma).
'for photo' becomes 'nora' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'pama' going around 'nora' is 'PANORAMA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for panorama that I've seen before include "Current affairs programme" , "Wide view of region" , "Wide-angle shot" , "Extensive all-round view" , "A view that's wide" .)
