What were the reactions of the people when Jesus was baptised?

The earliest gospel and source for the later gospels, the Gospel of Mark, reports no reaction by either John the Baptist or the crowd who saw the baptism. This is not surprising, because Jesus had not yet performed any miracles and John did not know that Jesus was the messiah he prophesied. Only Jesus saw the heavens open and a dove descend on him.
Matthew's Gospel says that John the Baptist realised who Jesus was, and forbade him to be baptised, but Jesus insisted. Again, there was no reaction from the crowd.
Luke's Gospel says that John the Baptist was the cousin of Jesus, but does not report any reluctance by John to baptise Jesus. There is no reaction by the crowd.
John's Gospel, which portrays Jesus as God, does not actually report whether he was actually baptised, but this is implied. There is no reaction of the crowd reported, but this time John actually saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and knew it was Jesus.
