Description Bastián Díaz 2015-04-22 17:45:58 UTC 
The idea is that gnome-photos just show pictures of the images folder or allow the application to choose which folders to use to search.
Currently, photos looking pictures in all personal folder, and irrelevant images appear as aggregates of pages http, icons, etc.

thanks

This isn't correct - photos doesn't display all images found in the user's home folder. Instead, it shows images from ~/Pictures and ~/Downloads.

Anyway, I think that this is a dupe of bug 709366.

I exaggerated a bit, but at that time the application was looking images in the "Desktop" folder and currently detects any image in any folder named "screenshot".

cheers
