Operation Manna/Chowhound

Towards the end of World War Two half of Holland was already liberated, the other half was not due to 'a bridge too far' at Arnhem. They had to endure what the Dutch call the Hunger Winter. The Allies set up an American/British operation using bombers to drop food at daylight from low altitude over our country.

Here you can see a B-25 Mitchell dropping close to the windmill-filled Kinderdijk. Aircraft and background are seperate photos taken by the author. Edited in Photoshop, trying to produce a more or less delicate oil painting effect.
