We investigate dynamic localization in curved femtosecond (fs) laser written waveguide arrays. The light propagation inside the array is directly observed by monitoring fluorescence of color centers induced during the fs writing process. In addition to monochromatic excitation the spectral response of the arrays is investigated by launching white light supercontinuum into the arrays.
