This is the 21th Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival, the largest photography festival in the world. With so much choices, with well over 1500 Canadian and international artists and photographers exhibiting at more than 200 exhibitions throughout the Greater Toronto Area, it isn\u2019t easy picking exhibits to see.<\/p>\n

We all look forward to seeing much more than the ones listed but these caught our interest and everyone is sure to have their own list as well.<\/p>\n
