Claim:
1. An apparatus comprising: a digital image sensor capable of capturing a digital image, wherein the captured digital image comprises captured content information including captured image data, and context information including metadata about the capturing of the captured digital image; a display capable of displaying both the captured digital image comprised of captured content information including captured image data and context information including smetadata about the capturing of the captured digital image; a transceiver configured to receive a receive profile; wherein the receive profile comprises media context parameters from another device; a digital storage capable of storing a send profile and the captured digital image comprised of captured content information including captured image data and context information including metadata about the capturing of the captured digital image; wherein the send profile comprises media context parameters for the current device; a processor configured to access the digital storage; process the captured digital image comprised of captured content information including captured image data and context information including metadata about the capturing of the captured digital image; and further configured to identify whether the context information including metadata about the capturing of the captured digital image corresponds to the media context parameters in the send profile and the media context parameters in the receive profile, and provide the identified captured digital image to the transceiver if it corresponds to both the media context parameters in the send profile and the media context parameters in the receive profile; wherein the processor is not configured to rely on media content parameters to identify whether the context information including metadata about the capturing of the captured digital image corresponds to the media context parameters in the send profile and the media context parameters in the receive profile does not; and wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit the provided identified captured image.
