Star Wars Canyon- the Jedi Transition
A short time ago in a canyon far, far away where fighter pilots from near and far come here to test their abilities in the Jedi Transition. For watching the videos, crank up the volume to get the full effect. Yes, it was loud.
98% of shots were done at 400mm. Depending on location, I was closer or further away from the jets.

My favorite spot
There are well established trails as this place is very popular with aviation photographers. You can see my lounge chair where I am parked for the whole day. Another popular spot which has a very access is top of the light colored hill to the right. The main advantage being on a high spot is the ability to see the jets coming. By having more warning, you can be more ready to shoot. The disadvantage is you need a strong lens( 600mm or greater).
