    Great video Jefferson, next time we visit America this will be on our bucket list. Loved the street art and food and that barber shop was amazing and great shoots too especially the mono. Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks Victor! I'm with you all the way. I should probably do a compilation of my barber shots from Safety Harbor, Florida, TJ and Imperial Beach, CA!

    Great to see your street photography shots and video. Good idea to hire someone to take you around. Looks like it was quiet until the evening when things picked up. Nice to see a positive review of TJ.

      Thank you Todd. I think the key is going mid-week and during the day. Plus Nathalie was a real find!

    The food looks amazing! There is so much to see south of the border and super smart to hire Natalie. Mexico is so much more than what we hear in the news. Thanks so much for sharing.

    I love Tijuana! Also rosarito and puerto nuevo for lobsters. People are so friendly and I've always felt safe. We take ubers everywhere. Also they have great beer and lots of breweries. Also great fine dining restaurants too. Cabanna is my favorite 😊

    Interesting trip. When I was in high school in SoCal in the early ‘60’s, lots of car buffs went to TJ for paint jobs and fancy upholstery.

    Another great Photowalks video. But I have a few questions:
    1. Did I see a raw egg yolk being put into the Caesar salad? I thought raw eggs were not good to eat (but maybe it is only the white of the egg that shouldn't be eaten raw?).
    2. Did drinking the water affect you in a bad way? I've always been told to not drink the water in Mexico (or ice cubes since they come from the same water).
    3. I loved how, at 8:33 in the video at the tequila/barber shop, your video shows the sign that says, "No Photos / No Video". I was actually waiting to see if you'd get a haircut there, too.
    4. My final comment is that the wall paintings I saw in your video were beautiful and don't detract from the setting, whereas in the U.S. we see just ugly graffiti on the walls.
    As always, I look forward to your next video. -- Ed

      Thanks as always Ed. Yes, he put a raw egg into the dressing. What can I say? It's how the salad was invented back in the 1920s. Tasted fine. The water--they told me tap water was bad, but that wasn't what I was drinking. No problem there. On the Tequila shop and the "no photos sign" Nathalie had already cleared it. Remember that when tour guides bring people to shops they spend money, so the owners were very happy to see Nathalie show up! No haircut for me thanks--but it would have been a fantastic experience, I guess....For next up, I had a blast in the border town of Imperial Beach, which is right over the border. Now, just have to finish the edit!

    lol! I own a house in shady area and I feel very safe there. Most people own an apple phone.
    Most residents of TJ also have a Visa. TJ is the best.

    There are many benefits to hiring a local guide...she got you places you probably would not be allower, and definately no portraity (which tell the story)...with the barbor, you mentoned the 1x lens, that was not using portrait mode? Was that because you wanted the environment plus the barbor? looks like great lighting? I like the black and white best as well!

    • @PhotowalksTV
      @PhotowalksTV  7 місяців тому

      Yes, Nathalie opened the door for all the portraits, which are always so much to look at in addition to buildings. Why not Portrait Mode for the barber? Well, I figured I had 5 minutes to get the shot, and as you note, I wanted to get as much of the environment as I could. On lighting, yup, barbers have good lights so they can see while they cut! Thanks so much for watching.
