The aspect ratio of each image is automatically retrieved from the File metadata. You can override the native width and height values by Examining the individual image pages to obtain the full resolution. For example: File:Donkey 1 arp 750px.jpg shows "Donkey_1_arp_750px.jpg (750 × 536 pixels, file size: 125 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)"
