Thanks Mike. It was just a thought.

As suggested, the similarity of the background would lead to the conclusion that these photos were taken either around the same time and certainly at the same place.

As a footnote, you sometimes see group photos from both WW1 & 2 that have been taken in the Middle East that feature a number chalked on a small sign at ground level (much as you would have a label that said what you had planted in your allotment....).

This does not appear to be a feature of these photos but I was told that it enabled the sitters to uplift their photos from the "studio" by quoting the number.
