yeah, you can have all the files stored in a web accessible path on
the local machine.

And when someone browses to it they get a page like this: 
http://12.100.23.254:8080/photos/iraq/

(just picked this from google... i've no idea what it is...)

you can have this page (or whole site) password protected, only
serving on a certain port to certain IPs etc.

I assume that you have a public IP address for this local box?
