Unsteady

Remember your first time skating? Everyone is looking at you while you frantically try to keep your balance. But there are times when fumbling around on skates is a good thing. Have you noticed how many times in movies you see a couple skating - one is a good skater and the other is a newbie? So what does the new skater do? He/she holds tight onto the partner's arm. Romantic, no? But sometimes things don't always work out, and the newbie skater breaks away and falls. This picture captures such a moment on the Rideau Canal, in Ottawa, our nation's capital.
