I was fortunate to be part of another project below is the information:
The idea is simple.
We, a group of photographers from an online community on social network Google+ thought, hey, why not publish a photography book together? We spent a lot of time talking photography online, share and look at each other's work, and even meet together to socialize and shoot. Why not collaborate on a project together? That's how the idea of this book was born.
When the call to contribute came, 500+ photographers, both known and less known, from all over the world responded, willing to donate their art for the project.
So why publish this book? Two reasons.
First, we wanted to see each other’s work in print. In today’s digital world, most photographs aren’t printed, and never become something tangible. Looking at photographs printed on paper is a very powerful experience. When photographs are tangible, they tend to last longer – in our minds and in our art collections.
Second, by publishing the book, we hope to raise funds for a good cause to give back to our world. All net proceeds from the sales of the book will be donated to Kiva, a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. The book is published in three formats – (1) print edition containing 193 photographs, (2) ebook containing the work of all 500+ photographers, (3) iOS mobile app, also containing all photographs in the project.

I am one of the Artists, I am part of the e-book.
Thanks!
