Hi,
sorry but just a grammatical correction, your last statement should be "Shot on Thursday with DSC-707".
Nice pictures you took, I guess you must be a crew or participant of the show to be able to take these pics on Thursday.
I just visited the show today, and man, it was so darn hot and tiring!
The last picture, there seems to be some artifact or compression problem at the top end of the tail, quite obvious at the yellow colour region. Did you apply too much compression to the pictures?
