Grouped by what? File name, metadata? What is in the picture?

What are the criteria for determining "similarity" of images? Do you have any pre-defined categories? This sounds like an AI project.

If there are 100s of images, I recommend read their dates, create folders for dates e.g. day or year (depending on their frequency) and then place these files in the respective folders.

+5, thats about all you can do, unless the images are tagged or have metadata, but classifying them on what the images contain (party, Cancun, Joe in underwear, etc) is not really feasible using code.
