The glob() function will tack the file name onto the path specified for the search directory, and it will skip hidden files that start with a dot:

use strict;
use warnings;
use 5.010;

my @files = glob "/users/me/*";

for (@files) {
    say;
}

--output:--
/users/me/066.JPG
/users/me/069.JPG
/users/me/072.JPG
/users/me/077.JPG
/users/me/079-1.JPG
