Speaking personally, I'd only extract the data you actually need to display - it will lower your overheads (even if just a little) and you won't be in a situation where you have to keep data around on the off-chance that they click the thumbnail for more info. Then if they do click the thumbnail get the data you need from the database. In this scenario about the only thing you'd need to pass your new page would be the ID number from the database - then just do a query for what you need on the new page. The more images you're dealing with, and the more information you extract per image, the more effective this will be at saving you overheads.
