That's a shortcoming of our approach here, using the web as a photo  
album. We tend to give all the photos equal footing by giving each  
its own page and similar sizes.

It the good old print world, you've got the option of doing that  
contextually important, weaker shot as a small element alongside the  
larger, stronger main image.

Maybe posting a PDF "picture page" could free you up.
