1. There is only one page to deal with, not three or four (frameset,
heading page, nav page, footer page, and of course, content page).

2. While looking at any of the sub-pages (in this case images), a
visitor can *bookmark* the sub-page, unlike in frames where only the
frameset page can be bookmarked.

3. Assuming pages of text rather than images, Google will index the
content on the sub-page, and when a visitor goes there (direct link sans
frameset), there is *no* header, footer, and more importantly, no
navigation.

That should do it, eh?
