First of all I really like the simplicity of your gallery and see the appeal of the timeline style of presenting the pictures.
When I take pictures it is either "random" or in a context for example a special event or a trip to somewhere. For me the timeline approach is very neat for the random style picture or if I want so scroll through memories of a specific year/month/day. However I realized that if I want to see pictures from a specific event/trip/shooting it gets a bit hard to find the right date.
Have you thought about introducing "collections" that show only pictures found in a subfolder? Maybe with the option to whitelist or blacklist subfolders you want or don't want to show up. They can still show up in the timeline, the idea is just to have another way to limit the pictures you want to see.
