I know a few photography-types (myself included) are going to be up in the CN Tower thoughout the night. We should see some amazing long exposure aerials of Toronto. I got the 6am-7am time slot :)

I'll be doing the CN tower event as well with a midnight slot. Hopefully I'm come back from it with an award winning image.

I'll probably be around the Toronto Public Library events, so not many crazy city shots coming from me, but definitely lots of library-related shots.

I'll likely be hanging around ocad and the surrounding area for most of the night. I hope I don't forget my tripod!
