This Is Only A Test

I’m guessing most people will know where these photos were taken? If you don’t, though, c’mon, Boonoonoonoos, let’s have some minor fun. Three things:

1. Without looking at the last photo, where’s this?
2. The photo pairs might have some commonality? Um, visual puns?
3. Guess which photo subject I absolutely liked best!
