Three points: 1) Excel is OK for flat (non-relational) lists, 2) calling it a database is a stretch, and 3) it is not on all computers including any of mine.

Before anyone gets their tale in a knot --- Excel is OK if you got it on your computer and need to keep a simple list.

You can import pictures, you can sort any way you like etc. There may be other more suitable programs but you often have to pay for them, learn how they operate and are certainly not universal in most cases.
