I'm using Google Photos. With that, I can share with a person; but what google does is send him the link,
yes
but once the link is known everybody in
Internet can see the photos. Yes, it is a long and obscure link, but still... I do not feel "safe". A spider might find it, right?
no. It can only be found if the receiver send also the link to an other people. I guess you can also set a passwd and a time limit (nexcloud do, I dunno for google)
No, no password setup in Google Photos.
So looking at alternatives. Some other service out there? (gratis preferably)
Maybe Google drive, perhaps?
same thing
I have not tried, but I thought the receiver has to be logged in.
I might host them myself. I have a minimal Linux server accessible from Internet. Now, what software, just Apache? Maybe too much work, maybe there is already something out there for the job.
a gallery? Piwigo?

you have a full passwd setup, but may be overkill for only small use,
Overkill it seems, yes...
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piwigo>
But there are no alternatives:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_photo_gallery_software>
jAlbum -> Proprietary Gallery Project -> discontinued MediaGoblin AGPLv3 Piwigo GPL
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaGoblin> Last release was made on 2016. May be overkill as well.
else apache and .htaccess...
.htaccess will not work, I don't get to know the IP of the incoming connection. All report MY router address.
Apache has a complication: I have to differentiate the internal LAN web
I don't understand. Is your server accessible from the net?
Once I open the access to it in the router, yes. At this moment, no.
I do not want people to have access to what Apache is currently serving to my LAN. I want people coming from Internet to see a different web page and not have access to the internal page, and perhaps using different settings, more secure. The google services aren't the safest here. Even though Nextcloud may seem overkill, it does offer you what you're looking for. And, self hosting it on some simple Leap15.1 box is easy peasy. An Rpi3 and an external disk can be enough, or an existing server ( the load of NC is pretty low ). With Drive it's the same mess as with Photos. Anyone with the link can access
