I'm not sure what your question is... but since you've
declared $dir and not actually used it, maybe you want
to try one of these:
#
# add the directory to the glob
#
my @jpegs = qx{ ls $dir/*.jpg };
#
# or better yet, use Perl's glob
#
my @jpegs = glob "$dir/*.jpg";
You could also chdir() to the images directory first.
