I’d simply use:

    ![alt text][pic1]

    ![alt text][pic2]

    ![alt text][pic3]

    [pic1]: http://www.domain.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/pic1.jpg
    [pic2]: http://www.domain.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/pic2.jpg
    [pic3]: http://www.domain.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/pic3.jpg

It’s very easy to edit the shared portion of these links all at
once with a good editor; eg. with Vim’s visual block mode.
