    What to do in Toronto?

    Going to be there with my 4x5 Chamonix, three or four lenses, a bunch of film and my wife. Any "do not miss" things I should look for?

    Do you know Bob Carnie? bob@bobcarnieprintmaking.ca

    He has a new place called Bob Carnie Printmaking, on 1840 Danforth Avenue.

    Sorry. Very unspecific request. My bad. I'm going this weekend. My understanding is that it will be overcast Saturday with a possibility of the sun peeking out on Sunday. I'm mostly interested in the historical aspects of the city and not in seeing exhibitions. If I had one more day...I'd want to spend it visiting exhibitions.

    The Distillery District has some interesting buildings but it will probably be over run with tourists etc. (no offence ha ha). Although if you do find yourself there, go to Soma chocolates, you won't be disappointed.

    Unfortunately, Toronto razed much of it's historical architecture so it won't have the same appeal as Montreal or Chicago kind of thing. I personally like the Financial District (King and Bay Sts.), lots of lines and contrast to play with. Some very good restaurants and pubs in the area as well.
    notch codes ? I only use one film...
