recursive_directory_iterator 

Heres a snippet:

        for( fs::recursive_directory_iterator it(folder)
           ; it != fs::recursive_directory_iterator()
           ; ++it)
        { 
            if (boost::iequals(fs::extension(it->path()), ".png")){
                files.push_back(it->path());
            }
        }
