    Rename the images file name and try using your targeted keyword, using ALT tags of the images will help as well.
    After all you need to have a unique picture to get ranked high, or at least try to make it helpful for users ;)

    Surround your images with relevant text that describes the image.

    use relevant (descriptive) names for your image.. instead of using 1211111.jpg, use exmaplename.jpg.. I think that would be seo friendly..

    use descriptive alt and title tags.
    and also have keywords in your webpage.

    < img src="url goes here" alt="something about image" title="this shows up when someones hovers mouse on the image" width="" height="" / >

    if for some reasons imaeg doesn't load, then alt tag will show up.
