Queen Mary talking to a young airman. They are standing in a field and are surrounded by uniformed men. According to the photograph's original caption the airman has just completed a loop-the-loop for the benefit of the Queen. Everyone is watching intently as the Queen commends the young man on his skill.
Royalty visiting the Western Front often took part in processions, presentations and inspections. They were also treated to displays by those in the armed forces. This was an opportunity for the men to show-off their adeptness.
[Original reads: 'ON THE BRITISH WESTERN FRONT. THE VISIT OF HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN. - The Queen thanking an airman for looping the loop.']

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, --and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of --Wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air...
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark or even eagle flew --
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God
