You can pass it as a byte array and build the bitmap for display on the next screen. but using intent we can send small images like thumbnails,icons etc.else it will gives bind failure.

Sender Activity

Intent _intent = new Intent(this, newscreen.class);
Bitmap _bitmap; // your bitmap
ByteArrayOutputStream _bs = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
_bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 50, _bs);
_intent.putExtra("byteArray", _bs.toByteArray());
startActivity(_intent);

Receiver Activity

if(getIntent().hasExtra("byteArray")) {
ImageView _imv= new ImageView(this);
Bitmap _bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(
        getIntent().getByteArrayExtra("byteArray"),0,getIntent().getByteArrayExtra("byteArray").length);        
_imv.setImageBitmap(_bitmap);
}
