Is to possible to check if link is to an image

Hey

I'm trying to use jQuery to trigger a light box for images contained in a hyperlink inside a content area, The code snippet should help to show what i mean.
  1. <div id="contentcontainer">
     <a href="www.site.com/image.jpg">
      <img src="www.site.com/image_thumb.jpg" />
     </a>
    </div>

Is it possible for jQuery to detect the link above is to an image? to assign a class to it.

Thanks
Phil
