I have an RIA Service that returns image data (Byte[]) and caption of image (String) from SQL Server.

The data part can sometimes be a few MB's so it can take quite a while to load.

I would like to load the bytes independently of the caption (which loads very fast).

Is there a way to do this without having to create a second image context?
