It looks like you want to use captions and (probably) different
orientations.
Best solution here is using a small floating table for each image. One row
for the image and another for the caption.
Example: http://www.hermansmith.nl/thema_reis.php
Alternatives: http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/www/captions.html
If you have some knowledge of php, you can write a script that creates a
gallery out of the pictures in a directory.
