Yes, floats act as floats, and in order to prevent them from trying to
line up alongside preceding floats we often have to separate or 'clear'
them.
Since cases and intended line-up differ, there's no definitive "works
perfect in all situations" solution. Some times we need a separating
element or 'clearer', but in most cases we can make those floats clear
each other with CSS only.
In your case those left-floating images should be given an additional
'clear: left' style-rule, to make them line up under each other without
the need for an element - paragraph or whatever - to separate them.
