[c#] Directory.GetFiles of certain extension

Is there a way to simplify this linq expression, or is there a better way of doing this?

Directory.GetFiles(dir, "*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
         .Where(s => s.EndsWith(".jpg", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) ||
                     s.EndsWith(".gif", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) ||
                     s.EndsWith(".png", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) ||
                     ...);

Basically I want to return all files of a certain extension. Unfortunately, this method isn't very flexible. I'd rather be able to add extensions to a list and have Directory.GetFiles return those extensions. Is that possible?

Doesn't the Directory.GetFiles(String, String) overload already do that? You would just do Directory.GetFiles(dir, "*.jpg", SearchOption.AllDirectories)

If you want to put them in a list, then just replace the "*.jpg" with a variable that iterates over a list and aggregate the results into an overall result set. Much clearer than individually specifying them. =)

Something like...

foreach(String fileExtension in extensionList){
    foreach(String file in Directory.GetFiles(dir, fileExtension, SearchOption.AllDirectories)){
        allFiles.Add(file);
    }
}

(If your directories are large, using EnumerateFiles instead of GetFiles can potentially be more efficient)

I would have done using just single line like

List<string> imageFiles = Directory.GetFiles(dir, "*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
      .Where(file => new string[] { ".jpg", ".gif", ".png" }
      .Contains(Path.GetExtension(file)))
      .ToList();
