Wrongly captioned mystery pic

Any ideas on this…probably British, ca.WWII, looks like 2 bladed props on aircraft with 4 inline engines

Thanks spitfireman and lindy’s lad…I think you can just see the front of the Merlin exhaust bank, too…think it’s a Charles E Brown out-take

It could have 3 bladed props with the focal plane shutter of the camera distorting their position…did the Halifax have a duct above the inboard engines? It was supposedly taken by a famous photographer but wrongly tagged (or bagged?) as a DC-3
