Well Jeff got both right and Mike Goldberg was half right for my last two
pictures.
I thought #7 would stump people since it didn't give much to go on but the
colors are very interesting in the River Group above Fortress (option "a"
below). Attached is a broader view showing where it is. Last September I
saw it erupting at intervals ~18m and durations ~ 3m so it was fairly easy
to see.
#8 is the vent between Catfish and Bijou erupting on Labor Day during the
Giant Hot Period that lead to the Giant normal function eruption. That's
the only time I have seen it erupt but it's not easy to notice when you are
watching for Giant. Looks like this vent needs a name!
So now I have to move away from Giant, Shoshone, and the River Group to add
to the mystery.......try these two.

I will guess that Graham's #7 is either: a) the small geyser (unnamed?)
beyond
"Spectrum Spring", the big pool on the flat above Fortress Geyser, or b)
"Underhill Geyser", beween the Pink Cone Group and the Fountain Group.
#8 is the small vent between Catfish and Bijou having a surprisingly large
eruption.
