Help with 16th The Queen's Lancers

[Guest]

I hope some can help me with this unlabeled photo. I found it with other family photos. The Officer to the right of the centre dog is Arthur "Willy" Macarthur Onslow he served with 16th Queen's Lancers, dying in Ypes. He also served in the Boer War. Can anyone expert tell me if this is his regiment and is it during the Great War or earlier. Many thanks Posie

Welcome to the forum. I can't make out any insignia on the photo I'm afraid. Can you get a better quality image to post here, scanned on a flatbed if possible?

Michelle  Thanks Michelle, I have taken this from another source. I hope my second attempt is better, sadly I cannot scan the original
