ProtoPhoto Blog
Welcome to the ProtoPhoto.com Blog. This blog is part of the Community Color family of sites. The goal of this project is to promote web develop in the Mountain West.
The founder of the site snaps photos of the places he visits. The site index provides a categorized list of photos. In an effort to improve the quality of the pictures, the founder of the site (me, Kevin Delaney) dumped a boat load of cash on a new Nikon D90 camera. I hope to pay for the camera with an ad page. When will I ever learn?
With tens of thousands of photos of varying quality, I decided to make a blog to highlight the better photos. The goal is to show one new photo a day. I will probably fall short of the goal.
My other blogs are Community Color and y-intercept.
