Can anyone ID the location for this Color photo of Bf110D-0 A2+AL of 6./ZG2 over the Channel Coast

Hello,

This color photo was printed in the wartime German book "Fliegende Front" and shows the Bf110D-0 of probably StaKap of 6./ZG2 in flight over high chalk cliffs on the Channel Coast, probably during about August, 1940. I know that there are high chalk cliffs like this on both sides of the channel in the area around Calais-Dover. Does anyone know the area well enough to be able to ID the side of Channel this a/c is flying over, and perhaps even the fairly precise spot where this photo was taken? The pattern of the farm fields in the background may be distinctive of either France or Britain.

Thanx for any help.

Regards,
