If what you mean is that the keyword density of a single post doesn't matter in regards to the optimization of a blogs "main page", I might consider the point that other on page factors may have a greater influence. My biggest concern, before even getting into any deep though on the idea, is that a few years down the road with so many pages on the blog, all tied together with the exact same on page factors that the domain would look like spam.
Keep in mind a blog is much more than an index page and to optimize your return it is important to make the most of all those pages.

So if you use text as link anchors you will have more SE and image search traffic (of course you need to use ALT tags and corresponding file names) = higher income.

The search engine folks have been around awhile and I'm sure that they realize that a certain amount of linking from images is normal. I doubt the average blogger could ever reach the point of needing to worry about being a banner farm.
That being said, it's not like linking the way you are is a bad thing either. From a surfers standpoint, I think they are more in-tune with clicking on an image to get to a gallery than the text underneath.

Anyone who is a true blogger / splogger realizes this. If your looking to generate truly astronomic traffic numbers blogging is not the way to accomplish it.
