Thanks Mike, if i am reading the document correctly then copyright is for the the life of the creator plus 70 years. As there has been nothing done to the images other than being scanned then they are unaltered so no claim for reworking could be claimed. I have the name of Officer who took the photos as being Lt Thomas Riley with reference to both The Yorkshire regiment as well as the Leeds Rifles though there are many references to the 1/5 West Yorks. The second album was taken in 1919 in Koln so he survived the war. I will have to look him up to see if i can find some more details.

Many thanks, Dave.
