This was shot in the experimental Aircraft section of the Museum of the USAF.
\nDetails of the shot are that it was shot on a Canon EOS Rebel using a 28 MM lens af F4 1\/60th second exposure ISO 800 handheld<\/p>\n

The view looks out from the Valkyrie Cafe. The large aircraft in the foreground is the last example of the XB-70 Valkyrie bomber. Also in the frame are the YF-12 (an interceptor variant of the SR71\/A-12), two gemini capsules including the Air Force Blue Gemini prototype (never flown) 2 X-24 lifting bodies (famous from the opening sequence of 6 Million Dollar Man), and barely visible to the far right at the back is an X-15.

\nI am a bit surprised that I got as much depth of field as I did at F4, but I was shooting in shutter priority mode as I didn’t think I could hand hold it much below 1\/60th<\/p>\n
