Rainbow Over Burning Man Airport

Rainbow photos have been pouring in lately – which isn’t much of a surprise given that we enjoyed about six weeks of thunderstorm photos before the Rainbow Era. Ron Chambless of Boise, Idaho has the latest contribution to this fun genre, and it’s a stunner. Ron was on hand for this year’s Burning Man celebration in the Nevada desert and brought back a photo that’s already monopolized our desktop.

Click here to submit your own photos to “POTW.”

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.
