Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well sourced, neutral and plagiarism free. Hook is cited and interesting. QPQ is done. I missed the image the first time I did the review, I've checked it now and looks good, I added the photographer to the caption in the aticle, as per the COmmons listing. Many thanks.
