Welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing these interesting pictures.
In the modern period, Poland did not exist as an independent state until 1918, being part of the Russian Empire. I can see that he has an Imperial Russian double headed eagle on his hat - I imagine that some of the experts on this forum will tell you lots more.

Could you please post:
1. Stamps, inscriptions etc. on the photo - if any
2. Shoulder boards image with high resolution

It's not a question of whether Russian or German or Turkish - I did see it Russian at first glance. What I'm trying to do is to define the particular unit he served with and shoulder boards details would help.
For now - dated pre 1907, Excellent Shooter second class badge. 57 could be a number of either regiment or battalion. Again, shoulder boards image is needed.
