Welcome to ProtoPhoto
A virtual tour of the Mountain West
Welcome to ProtoPhoto.com. This site has evolved into a virtual tour of the Mountain West. It has pictures of rivers, towns, parks and scenic routes in Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Montana and more. Everything is linked. For example, one gallery might show pictures of the Salmon River. It would have links to Highway 93, Stanley, Idaho and other things along the river, including the wildflowers. You can browse from one subject to the next.
The site includes a rating program. To rate pictures, you need to register. If you have already registered, just login. You can turn any of the pictures into a greeting card.

Sponsors
I don't pollute the photograph pages with ads. However, I need ads to pay for my disk space and bandwidth. So I've loaded this page with ads. After you enjoy the pictures, I hope you take the time to visit my sponsors page. I have tried to pick out high quality sponsors, like the following:
Overstock
sells overstocked merchandise. You can find absolutely fantastic deals on last year's model cameras. They are a god-send for amateur digital photographers. You can buy higher quality cameras at closeout prices. I always check out their inventory before purchasing equipment.
PhotoWorks.com is a online photo resource that lets you share digital photos with friends, order photo quality prints online. The site even has nifty
features that let you build ebooks and other quality displays for your important digital photos.
The web is a great way to share and preserve your memories.
The secret to a great looking arts or crafts project is to start with great materials. Dick Blick is the world's source for art supplies. Before the internet, they supplied artists with paints, pencils, papers, easils and canvas through their catalog. Today, you can save the printing costs and order online.
See a complete list of sponsors on a fountain of bargains dot com. Here you will find a virtual mall of the finest internet merchants. Commissions support this and other sites, including Traces of History, Descriptive Mathematics...
