And it's Free too!

Around two years ago I took this photograph of Baglihar Dam on Chenab River while on way to Kashmir. While writing a post on it for my Kashmir blog i realized that the wiki entry for this Dam had no image, so I uploaded the image to wiki with a creative common license  which basically means  - you are free to reuse it, but give credit.

Last week I got a 'thank you' email from someone with World Watch Institute. Apparently they picked up this photograph from Wikipedia and published it to their magazine (May-June issue) alongside a story on 'water challenges in Asia'. Not only they gave credit and notified me about the usage, they also send me a free pdf copy of the issue that normally cost around $6. How about that!
