A typical street scene in Juarez, Mexico. (16th September Avenue). The road sign to El Paso, TX is clearly visible. I've dodged shadows & burned in highlights.

"Location: The state of Chihuahua is located at the northern end of Mexico, on the Northwest Central Plain. It is bordered to the north and northeast by the United States, to the west and south by the state of Sonora, and to the southeast by the state of Sinaloa.

General Information: Chihuahua covers a surface area of 244,938 square kilometers, making it the largest state in Mexico. Its climate is dry to semi-arid, though there is regular rainfall and occasional extremes in temperature. The average annual temperature is 68º F.

According to the 1990 Census, the state has 2.5 million residents, with the largest municipality, Ciudad Juarez, serving as home to 800,000 Chihuahuans. The municipality of Chihuahua has about half a million inhabitants; the municipalities of Cuauhtemoc, Delicias, and Parral are also significant population centers."

Hi Chris,

Nice, colorful street scene showing the path to El Paso. You've done a very nice job with the dodging and burning, which I'm still trying to become proficient with. Great POV here.

Hi Chris .. I was away for a while.
This is a great daily life shot ... great street scene with the sign pointing the way to El Paso, the pedestrians crossing the street, the two buses. The shot gives of nice feeling of the street activities.
