Nice shots again! Love the Fedex one. The only negatives on these photos is the spots and those are the same spot in each photo so it seems you need to clean your lense off. ;)

Really windy and yes I don't know many spots where the Police can't tell you to move. ;)

What I think he's talking about is not where the photos were taken but the visible dust spots on your pictures....this is caused by dust on the glass that protects the sensor....you can buy many things which claim to clean them but be careful because it's exceedingly fragile and if broken will prevent your camera from working.....often a good old fashioned air blower will do the job ;)

You could also stop down a bit more on the aperture....this means only the worst spots are visible (which can be cloned out in PS)....I notice that most of these are taken in the f12-16 kind of range...you can get that down to f8 at least....

A good way of looking for spots is to equalize your image....here's an example of one of yours....

Oh yes I am aware of that. I just need to find the old blower my dad has for his old camera.
