A TPMG favourite of many including myself ... the annual $5 entry after 5pm event for night time shooting at the EX. We'll meet just inside the Princes' Gate usually by a big concrete sign near the Direct Energy Centre.... and by the time 5:20pm rolls around we have all congregated. Then we will head over to the food building, get some dinner, shoot along the way in the midway games, and look for fun things to shoot after having food. Its a combination of street photography and night photography with lots of light play. Bring your tripods - as we have never had an issue with them.

Here is a video I created a few years ago with my D300s .... I am thinking of doing another one this time with my new D800....

I am personally planning to park in the underground .. its worth the extra few bucks.... see you there!

Depending on the interest level -- I am more than happy to schedule a second return visit as well.... maybe on a Tuesday night the following week?

I'm going for parking at Liberty Village. With all of the construction they have pulled out most of the parking meters.

Got to go thru the fridge and decide what to bring...

Jordon..... Your plan is definately cheaper. I could also just park around the cormer where I work.... And it would cost me nothing, except that in the past my feet have been sore at the end and the walk back to the car was painful.

I won't be able to make it until after you have finished eating - probably around 7:30. I will call when I get there, or just try you find you around the midway.

Is there anyone coming from Mississauga ( or close by) that I could carpool with? We can split parking and gas. Also, I'm great entertainment on the road.

I'm gonna try for this night I think, or perhaps a spillover event... Don't count on me for that spill over event. As a cola fiend I gotta try the fried Coke!

If you mean Tuesday the 21st (the same week) then I'm fine with that.

Are you still going to try to do the following Wednesday? Since I don't know what time I can get to the CNE, I can't make an event of my own.
