Dynamic URLs have PR 0 ?

It looks like URLs with a parameter are being discriminated in Google.
For instance this page
http://www.molon.de/galleries/Malaysia/Sarawak/Belaga/

has PR 5, while the picture pages, one link away from this page, for
instance
http://www.molon.de/galleries/Malays.../img.php?pic=4

have PR 0.

How can this be the case ?

Interestingly the above page is in Google - a search for "Belaga
airport" puts it in third place.

Well, because that is not how page ranking works... it finds pages that have
many links to it... and the quality of those links, it will index all pages,
and if the rest of home page has a high PR then the subpages should also be
quite reachable in SE's even if they don't have a high page rank... lets
face it, how many people linke to img.php?pic=4 ?

But there is one page with PR 5 (the gallery page) which links directly
to it and should therefore pass some PR to it.
