Fall brings Atlantans a photo feast as Atlanta Celebrates Photography kicks off its 18th annual festival with a smorgasbord of exhibits, gallery receptions, artist talks, lectures and special events throughout the state.

The festival has more than 100 participating venues. Most events take place in metro Atlanta, although participating locations extend from Newnan to Alpharetta and even north to Cartersville.

The festival officially runs the entire month of October, but many exhibits are already underway and extend after the festival, giving photography enthusiasts time to sample the entire buffet of lens-based media.
