US Mexican border 2007
Tijuana, Mexico
August 18, 2007
As dusk falls on the Mexican side of the US Mexican border, a group of men (from Mexico and parts of Central America) gather at a point near the fence to cross.
Many have traveled for days to get to this point; others are crossing over for their second or third time. All are optimistic despite of the heavy presents of border patrol and high technology confronting them as soon as they cross.
This is a popular spot to cross because it takes only minutes to reach civilization where they can get lost by blending into the crowds.
