Roughly, the photo has been taken - most certainely during delivery flight - between September 1941 and January 1942. Note both 8543 & 8546 have been accidented (destroyed by own forces) as early as December 1941.
And I don't know where the pic has been taken but in Italy I suppose, most probably.
Cheers,
Franck.

Thanks Frank
Well, when it comes to the huge production types of the Luftwaffe (Bf 109, Fw 190, Ju 88 etc, etc) I cover them sort of a bit superficially.
I usually take the word of what other more knowledgeable individuals say about them.
So, thanks for the update! Appreciated
Cheers
Stig
