Past POTW Winners
Truly, the golden age of "Picture of the Week" has returned! Of almost
five dozen submissions, nearly a third made it into our "personal desktop
wallpaper" file. But one photo called out to us to be proclaimed the
undisputed "Picture of the Week" Bud Granley's. We think you'll agree
when you see it.
Interesting note: This week's top three photos were all taken in
Canada!
Due to privacy issues, AVweb does not publish e-mail addresses of
