This photo was taken from a Beechcraft King Air that was flying above the T-38's. Since the T-38's were traveling like three times as fast as the Beech, timing was critical.

They did this before using ground based cameras shooting at the sun, which provided a nice collimated light source.

How they got the most recent image while looking at the ground is a mystery.
