Ahmed Cemal, known as Cemal Pasha (former transcription Djemal Pasha): see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djemal_Pasha
Bruno Traugott Karl TROMMER (-PASCHA) was a german officer who served in the ottoman army (www.lexikon-deutschegenerale.de/t_pr.html ).
Pasha has in this context the meaning of „General“.

Djemal Pacha, aka Djemal Pasha, Cemal Paşa was a key figure in the Ottoman empire in the early 20th Century, part of a triumvirate that ruled the empire during WWI. He also headed a number of Ottoman military campaigns, and was implicated in the Armenian Genocide. He was assassinated in 1922 as part of a campaign to kill those deemed responsible for the Armenian Genocide.

In his memoirs, readable online, he defended himself against these charges.

Trommer Pasha is mentioned as one of the few German officers fighting with the Turks at Gallipoli, (CO of the XIV Corps), so perhaps this is where the photo was taken.
