As mentioned, we'll most likely be in the food building in a large group roughly between 6:30pm and 7:15ish or maybe later? If we are not actually inside - due to seating capacity - we may be outside on one of the lawns -- either east or west. For latecomers - this is where you can find most of us.

Some of you WILL get seperated. Guaranteed. Ask for a contact number if you wish to join the group later on. Make it two numbers just in case one doesn't pick up.

I will join you guys when it gets dark.

Details:

What: Let's Go To The Ex!
When: Wednesday September 1st 2010
Time: 5:30PM
Where: Meet just inside the Prices' Gates at the south east corner of the Direct Energy Centre.
Bring: Admission fee, camera, tripod, accessories.

An annual favourite, and now going on for 4 years I believe.... its our annual night time visit to the C.N.E. Time to harass more games attendants who don't want their pictures taken, and shoot the rides at night time getting some cool effects such as this one I took a couple of years ago:

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lxdesign/224532716/" title="Coloured Fun by lxdesign, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/83/224532716_a72bc05913.jpg" width="500" height="332" alt="Coloured Fun"></a>

I haven't checked the website yet, but in past year's they have been offering a deal on Wednesday's for $5 admission after 5pm. I hope they still have the same deal going. We will meet at 5:30ish at the south east corner of the Direct Energy centre which is just inside of the Prices' gates. There is usually a parade around 6pm that we shoot, and then wander over to the food building for dinner. We then head into the midway, and shoot the night lights until we are exhausted. Sometimes upsetting the carnies along the way.


I believe you mean the Princes' Gate. I am new and how can I recognize your guys?

Yes, typo corrected. The bigger question ... how can you recognize our gals? :) Most of us have the orange TPMG luggage tags as mentioned. And if you see a collective of people with camera's, and tripods -- that's us.

Great evening. Between the walking, the heat, and possibly the weight of my camera bag, I'm exhausted... On the GO train, on the way back to my car.
