If you're prepared to make a special class of br between those images,
why not make a special img class, just for those images? (Leaving most
other images to display as normal.) After all, it really is the
presentation of those images which you're playing with; and I really
can't see how it's more work to produce a special class for those image
elements, than the br element (or something else).
Alternatively, you could make a special div class around those images,
and apply your styles to images that are children of your special div
class. But you're still going to create a special class of something,
whatever method you choose, just for those images.
You're avoiding using CSS to do the job properly (directly affect the
thing you want to modify), and playing the tag soup game (messing with
other things, to try and achieve the desired result - br is a "line
break").
