I doubt it's a Gotha; more like an Aviatik or DFW?
Cheers,

 isn't it? anyway Albatros or Gotha (or other reconnaissance biplane) maybe somebody knows what types reconnaissance biplane was used by Germans in East Front, especialy Grodno-Lida-Smorgon-Baranowitschi (Baranowicze) - Molideczno area. My picture was made probably in this area by FFA56 soldier. This is probably aircraft used by Flieger-Bataillon Nr. 2 - FlgBtl 2 I would be grateful for any tips |

You could well be right, based on the radiator tubes direction, although the exhaust stub appears to be at the front rather than the back of the engine. It's a bit difficult to determine, especially with all those troops blocking off part of the image.
Cheers,

Hard to tell, but it looks to me like the rear cabane struts are more vertical on the first picture than on the Gotha.
