*** THIS WEEK’S WINNERS ***
Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the U.S. (And a happy Thursday to the rest of our readership.) One thing we’re perpetually thankful for around the AVweb offices are our readers – and at no time do we appreciate you guys more than when we hunker down and sort through each week’s batch of reader-submitted photos.
| VNY ATC Tower Costume It’s not often enough that “POTW” contributors end up in front of the camera, but Canoga Park, California’s Mujahid Abdulrahim handed the shooting duties over to Connie Saucedo for this photo that would make a few Macy’s Parade entrants green with envy. Mujahid’s comments have the whole smile-inducing story:

| Cooling Down on the High Plains Larry Durner of Simla, Colorado couldn’t pass up a great background to shoot this Stearman. As he put it, “The neutral colors of the background make the colorful Stearman look almost three-dimensional.” And he’s right. (Though he forgot to mention that this photo makes a great desktop wallpaper.) | ||||
| Coming Out Party Another child who’s finally outgrown the garage and ready to leave the nest! Tim Lewis of Bristow, Virginia says it’s “time to move the RV-10 to the airport for final assembly.” | ||||
| After the Storm Jack Fleetwood of Round Rock, Texas may have had to wait out the weather, but at least he got a great photo out of the deal. | ||||
| Shuttle “Atlantis” on Its 30th NASA Mission Christopher Ebdon of Pasadena, Texas sees us off this week with a shot that never gets old – Space Shuttle OV-104 Atlantis taking off for it’s 30th mission. Christopher got the shot from the Banana Creek Lauch Viewing Area 3 1/2 miles away. See? We told you it never gets old! | ||||
There are more reader-submitted photos in the slideshow on AVweb‘s home page – and trust us, you don’t want to miss this week’s batch. (There are quite a few we’d like to have included here.)

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.
