Judging by the gravity tank under the center section of the wing, this is an early production model of an Airco DH2.

R.A.F. B.E.2c is a possible answer, I think.

When I see the nose, I think that it must be a DH.1 or a DH.1a.

Best regards

Ross probably got it. I was unable to see fuselage nacelle almost inverted. The elevator shape points to a R.A.F. F.E.2b.

Now that I look at the elevator, I agree, Ross has got it right.

Most likely 2b from the location of the gravity tank.
