Unidentified early Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A in what appears to be the standard camouflage of 74/75/76. Underside of cowling appears to be yellow 04. The lack of the forward fuselage extension (introduced on the Fw 190 A-5), along with the presence of the panel line on the air intake duct on the side of the cowling (introduced on the Fw 190 A-1), narrows the possible subtype down to either an Fw 190 A-1, A-2, A-3, or A-4.
The temporary inscription on the propeller has unfortunately so far proven illegible, except for the number "82". (German Aviation 1919-1945 collection; additional information very kindly supplied by Steve Sheflin and Leon Venter, via luftwaffe-research-group.org)
