Theres a few things that are quite odd about this picture; the squadron codes are an odd size and font and the roundel is an odd size and type. There is also no sign of a fin flash. The Spit is fitted with what looks like a de Havilland airscrew. 'SH' was 64 Sqn's code at that time, but in the summer of 1940 mostly looked like this:

P/O James Caister's Spitfire of 603 City of Edinburgh Sqn, Aux AF, landed in France on 6 September 1940. Caister spent the rest of the war as a POW, but his aircraft became one of the beute fleet operated by the Luftwaffe and was decorated in an unusual wavy camouflage colour scheme.
