Winning POTW Image for Week 0317.

We received over 100 pictures last week. Congratulations to this week’s winner, Jim Rowland, of Anchorage, AK. His photo, titled “Springtime in Alaska”, was taken at the Lake Hood seaplane base during that period when the ice is too thin for skis and too thick for floats. We’re told the nearby dirt strip is coming to life again. Great picture Jim! Your AVweb prize is on the way.
