Raster assumes you're using a geospatially aware format. Hence, given the 
metadata in the file, it can position the entire image correctly. In this 
case, it means that each individual x_y.jpg will be correctly positioned. 
You can also access pixels by real-world-coordinate fairly easily. 
Preserving the original pixel indices is not its strong point. Each tile 
starts at (1,1) (or (0,0) can't remember which).
