My friend Maggie created a group called Weird People and organized the first activity a few weeks ago: an alien walking tour of Shenzhen. The idea was to wear a mask and walk around the city shocking people and shooting their reactions. Being a bit of a weirdo myself, this was right up my alley. SZStuff only had about 3 people show up (slackers!) but we got about 15 more through Douban. It was definitely a ton of fun. Here are some of my favorite shots:

Definitely my favorite reaction of the day (on the metro):
This guy worked a looong time on his mask:

I've done a few things similar to this in the past, and I'd love to do more again. Stay tuned for the 2nd activity, which hopefully runs along the theme of kungfutography! And there's a bunch more pictures from this event here.
