I dont quite get where your comming from, I think a differnt language or oop
(short for oops)

a variable does not have properties, it is not an object as in VB, java, and
others...

try
$photo = "photo$i"; // just a little cleaner
$photo_size = filesize($photo); // if your wanting file size

Or getimagesize() if you need to know the width and height
