Hi Bill,
You may want to check out "Gallery" - a PHP-based photo gallery software that allows you to add descriptions to photos and group by album (and nest albums)

I know there are hosting providers who provide Gallery pre-installed for a few bucks a month, but I don't know any off the top of head - I would use google and see what you come up with.

What you are describing as your 'requirements' really steers you towards a web site and while it would be possible to build by hand, would be a nightmare to maintain - gallery will be easy AND you can share your collection over the internet, should you choose to. (you can also lock it down so only authorized users can see it, if that's the way you want to go)

HTH,
j.
