Each week, we go through dozens (and sometimes hundreds) of reader-submitted photos and pick the very best to share with you on Thursday mornings. The top photos are featured on AVweb‘s home page, and one photo that stands above the others is awarded an AVweb baseball cap as our “Picture of the Week.” Want to see your photo on AVweb.com?

*** THIS WEEK’S WINNERS ***
This edition of "Picture of the Week" hits the streets on Christmas morning, and we’ve stacked the deck accordingly – with holiday photos from our readers. Before unwrapping today’s presents, we want to take a moment to thank each and every reader who made time to send us a photo this year. By now you know how much we enjoy them, and we look forward to seeing even more from you in the coming year.
| Snow-Covered Nighthawk Brian Emch of Lancaster, California transports us to a winter wonderland with this sight you don’t see every day – an F-117 "at Palmdale’s Blackbird Air Park." |
| Santa’s Alternate Air Field in Virginia Martin Heller of Springfield, Virginia doesn’t decorate for the neighbors so much as he decorates for Santa Claus. Click through to the large version and keep your eye peeled for "the shrunken Santa head VASIs, the dual windsocks for wind shear, [a] sign for free reindeer chow, and (new for 2008) the outhouse." (What – no ATC, Martin?) | ||||
| California Christmas Yeah, we all knew he couldn’t do the whole thing in just a sleigh, George Kovacevic of Jamul, California confirms it. (Never would’ve pegged him for a "Thumper," though.) | ||||
| Santa’s Helpers John Rippinger of Schaumburg, Illinois is joined by his family to wish everyone reading "POTW" a happy holiday. (Thanks for all the pics this year, John!) | ||||
| B-17 FX Join us in raising a glass of egg nog to toast Daniel Valovich of Hot Springs, Arkansas – one of our most prolific submitters, and someone who definitely knows his way around an airplane photo. | ||||
You’ll find more festive photos from our readers in the slideshow on AVweb‘s home page – and here’s one more, sent to us by Clarke Reid of Barrie, Ontario (Canada). Clarke tells us the image was circulating as a U.S. Air Force holiday card, and you may enjoy it, too.

A quick note for submitters: If you’ve got several photos that you feel are “POTW” material, your best bet is to submit them one-a-week! That gives your photos a greater chance of seeing print on AVweb, and it makes the selection process a little easier on us, too. 😉
A Reminder About Copyrights:
Please take a moment to consider the source of your image before submitting to our “Picture of the Week” contest. If you did not take the photo yourself, ask yourself if you are indeed authorized to release publication rights to AVweb. If you’re uncertain, consult the POTW Rules or or send us an e-mail.
