Thats fine, but this is normalization for no real purpose. You have defined two tables, one for the image and another for the metadata but the relationship is one-to-one which makes it rather redundant except if you wish to store different amounts of metadata per image. You also state "How about NFS/SMB network shares? That's not a bad idea either but not without it's problems" Whilst I am an advocate of binary storage, there is no real issue I see with NFS/SMB particularly NFSv4 (supports file locking which I like) or GFS2. Cluster file system works quite well.. but I digress. I find all sorts of injection issues surrounding statements such as $SQL = "select * from file where id = " . $_GET["id"] in the tutorial you mention, not that this is a production ready script, it just makes me nervouse when newbies replicate this.
