    Never happy I looked at this shot from another angle and to me the new variation makes sense. All the central figures are looking at the camera (I zoomed in on the raw files and they're all looking directly, except the guy in the shades but I'm saying he's looking). The feeling I get from this shot is that these people, if not involved in their activities, would want to know who I was and why I took their picture....They almost look concerned! Anyway, enough of that...Here's the cropped version

    Their concern is probably force of habit. Aren't we lucky to live in a country where the secret police won't take you away for protesting? I also like the second shot, it's those two guys with sunglasses, their concern makes this an interesting photo.

    good crop! Shot 2 is much stronger.
