title: Display image from Uri
body: <p>In a Windows Phone 8 app, I'm using the following code to display an image:</p>
  
  <pre><code>InitializeComponent();
  Image i = new Image();
  i.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri("C:\\Data\\Users\\Public\\Pictures\\Sample Pictures\\sample_photo_05.jpg", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));       
  LayoutRoot.Children.Add(i);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when the page loads, the screen is empty. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?</p>
