Winterlude fireworks

There were some rather spectacular fireworks on Friday as part of Winterlude. The NCC promoted them as being even better than the annual Canada Day fireworks, and by all accounts, they were. While I didn't get to see those fireworks, there were more fireworks on the Rideau Canal Skateway on Saturday night at Fifth Avenue, and I happened to be there at the right time to snap some photos. I tweeted this one at the time, and it's good enough that I thought I'd share it here on the blog, too:

If, like me, you didn't get a chance to see Friday's spectacle, this amateur video, courtesy of Let's Go Ottawa, captured it really well:
