I think you have to launch a thread which will parse your photos, and 
update the GUI.

You will have to take care about asynchronous refresh from that thread: you 
can't just call gtk methods from it. The solution is to create a queue, 
where threads put commands, and have this queue read by the main thread 
(using timeout_add). I can send you such 'serializer' if you want...
