They appear to be pics of detachment Philipp of I/JG 54 at Petäjärvi airfield on the Karelian Isthmus. They were covering a German-Italian naval unit on Lake Ladoga from 1st July until October 1942. The planes were F-4:s and some pics appear in several Finnish books of Luftwaffe in Finland and Norway.

Yes indeed, that last pic shows escort for Generaloberst Alfred Keller, commander of Luftflotte 1. He was inspecting the previously mentioned Einsatzstab Fähre Ost in Mensuvaara at 10 August 1942. He was travelling by a He 111 but unfortunately I can't tell its code.
