Jacking up location

Just want to clarify with you all if the locations points are safe to jack up the car? Thank you!

I also suggest using tire chalks on the front tires and of course a jackstand or two if working under it.
what are you doing btw?

Don't put the tire chocks under the front wheels until after you have jacked up the car can roll back a bit as you jack it up. IMO
How did you get such a big jack under your car?

It looks like the lifting arm has a slight curve/concave profile so Im guessing its a low profile jack
