Answer
Hello Venkatesh,

It really depends on what type of phone you have now what I recommend is this go into your contacts list and edit the contact now you have the ability there to add an e-mail account. Now what you need to do is this go into your pictures and select the picture you want to send now press on send or send via select mms multi media and select a contact with an e-mail this will send your picture to them through text message. Also there is not way to find out when you are roaming I am not sure what your designated area would be you would need to check with your local provider however your phone will not let you know. I hope that I have been of help to you if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your question.
