Redirect everything except a particular folder name

[Gafaddict]

I'm building a photo album script and am coming across a problem here.

 

I want to redirect users to a certain album based on the criteria they give me:

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/? picture.php?year=$1&season=$2&meet=$3&picture=$4

 

The problem is that the actual "images" folder I'm storing the pictures is also susceptible to this rule.

 

I tried replacing the above code with this, as the first level is a numerical value (a year):

RewriteRule ^([1-9+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/? picture.php?year=$1&season=$2&meet=$3&picture=$4

 

But that just causes the redirect to fail completely.

 

Is there any way to exclude only the "images" folder from this rule?
