If you were ever subjected to a slide show back when it involved a mechanical projector and a dark lounge room, then the idea of a whole book of travel photos might not appeal to you. Luckily for everyone, online collaborative photo book Dancing Mountain doesn't involve a boring couple and their boring photos in front of a boring landmark, nor the frightening reality of four walls with nowhere to run.

They jostle for my attention in cafes, paper-cutting innocent bystanders queueing for their lattes.
