Thought Frank might have posted about his trip to Ottawa by now (no I didn't see him). Anyway, I popped down to look at the ice sculptures in Confederation Park. Very disappointing this year. The weather was so warm at the weekend that the sculptures had already begun to melt and break off. I like to go down in the evening to see them lit up. Ideally I would have had a tripod with me but I didn't take one out of consideration for the other visitors. Had to make do with IS ;-) One of the sculptures was completely in bits, but they lit the tombstone anyway :-) http://www.pbase.com/wendybeard/image/39566999 http://www.pbase.com/wendybeard/image/39567000 This was part of the tableau http://www.pbase.com/wendybeard/image/39566998
there was even some mad reporter from the local TV station interviewing the sculptures http://www.pbase.com/wendybeard/image/39567008 You can see what the sculptures were supposed to look like here: http://www.canadascapital.gc.ca/winterlude/index.asp?bhcp=1 Wendy --- Wendy Beard Ottawa, Canada http://www.beard-redfern.com
