These guys were walking down the street, then stopped to sing a few bars of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."

As in the other thread, those are Guy Fawkes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes) masks and I'm sure these guys are part of Anonymous (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_%28group%29) as well.

Best part of your shot is you got the guy with the DEVO (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEVO) hat!

Yeah, there's some big protest on April 12th. Nice catch about the Devo hat. I was wondering what it was.

I like the 2nd shot's angle. That smirk is just creepy. lol

Here are a couple more with the guy wearing the Energy Dome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Dome), aka Devo hat....

good to know that fact.

#1 seems most complete. also due to it being unsaturated it's given the right feel. though there are a couple of guys hidden, that may be their role in the whole picture.

#2 is very strong and dignified. it seems to represent them greatly (or the mask). i like it a lot except the thumb got in the way. a bit of brightening would probably help too. either way, it's awesome!

#3 makes them look approachable.

#4 looks like you tried to satisfy the awareness of devo. he he.

thanks so much for sharing these.
kudos!

Thank you for the comments. Much appreciated.

As a result of meeting these guys in Cambridge, I went down to photograph the Anonymous Protest on the Boston Common. Here are the shots I took there:
