Reminds me of a scene from the show CSI.
Inside the two yellow circles I have indicated some sensor spots, which could be dirt, oil, dust, etc... that need to be removed so as to not show on every one of your pictures.
Could be as simple as turning on manual cleaning, which lifts the mirror and allows you access to the sensor, then giving it a good blast or thirty with a Giotto rocket blower, or you may have to purchase some goods to clean the sensor properly.
That's a great photo. And I'm just as averse to being photographed.
I'll throw this one in - Qantas 12 Super arriving from Los Angeles:
ISO1600, F/9.0, 1/1600sec, 490mm, 1000ft.
It never gets old watching such a huge plane glide in for landing so slowly.

Awesome! I have always love the sky here. Especially sunsets! Great shot!
Handheld shot I took of Windsor, Ontario from a parking garage in Detroit with my Sony RX100m2.

That reminds me: must tidy up the shack...
Fortified church at Great Salkeld...
So, I finally got my macro rig all together, with two wireless speedlites on a circular rig that fits around the lens. This may just work for me!
Interesting thing I just noticed. As the image is shrunk down to appear in the extremely limited capacity here, moiré has appeared on the eyes, which is not there on my original. Ce la vie!
Tamron 90mm f/2.8, Extension Tubes,
WOW!...Outstanding shot John. I haven't had much success with extension tubes. I know that I have to work on lighting. Your setup appears to be working just great.

Great image! I have always wanted to get into photographing aircraft. I've started off with smaller flying things (birds), but eventually I'll get there. I would assume you make extensive use of polarising filters and lens hoods. The focal lengths look altogether pretty sane, though. No huge, huge zooms (600mm+). I also suspect you have to be careful with depth of field because planes are very large and if you shoot with too much aperture the tail will be blurry or something. Lots of stopping down.
How do you combat smog, air distortion, and haze? A polariser helps some, does it help to use high shutter speeds (minimal air movement within the capture time)? Just choose really crystal clear days?

Just curious. Nice range of colours. Whenever I try a shot like that, I get it home and look at it and think it's just a door. Then I look at somebody else's shot and I like it. I'm my own worst critique I guess.
