Windmill checkmate

I don't like posting here because I feel this should be reserved for top players who deserve to showcase their games, but I just had to share this beautiful knight/bishop windmill checkmate pattern I just got in a blitz game. I looked at it for a full minute before deciding it was on. Not sure my opponent realised what was coming after the first check!

 


Just realised my first annotation in the comments didn't save properly: should read "when my opponent moves 3.c3 (Ponziani opening?), I just figure his queen's knight is trapped.
