A few more:

Seems like I have messed up the profile setting in PS, so the WB is off. Will correct that and replace the pictures later.

Thanks for viewing!

It is porbably the official transport plain for their supporting equipment and staff. Maybe the mobile souvenir shop travels on this plan

Thanks! It wasn't as difficult as you have put it, really. I have a 80-200mm f/2.8, the oldest single-touch model. I set the focus range to 5m~infinity, so that the camera can get focused in a shorter time.

The Charlie's called Fat Albert. It has JATO (Jet assisted Take Off) rocket boosters which are quite spectacular.
