French planes research

Hello all, I am new here and I currently researching one of my pictures I have in my german collection.
This picture was made by a luftwaffe officer.
I showed it already to somebody who told me the tail on the front was of a french LeO 451.

here is the picture: http://users.pandora.be/thoelen/Fran...0LeO%20451.JPG

My questions are now:
- is this person right?
- can anybody recognise any other types of planes in the back
- perhaps somebody knows where this picture was made

Yes, it is a LeO 451.
Most probably at Bordeaux-Mérignac in June/July 1940.
In the background a mix of trainers, MS 230s, Potez 25s...
