Simple as this:

Intent in = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("file://"+yourFileName));
startActivity(in);

Default app for viewing pictures will start, or if there's no default, user get selection dialog which app to use.

you really dont need to use database to view taken picture.

To get new image - open an intent for Camera. like this
To see all other captured images, open Gallery. see this discussion

heres a good overview of opening data via intents on your phone. All this documentation is in here as well http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/intents/intents-filters.html but not as clear to follow.

http://indyvision.net/2010/03/android-using-intents-open-files/

 File imageFile2View = new File("/sdcard/nice_photo.jpeg");
 Intent i = new Intent();
 i.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
 i.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(imageFile2View), "image/jpeg");
 startActivity(i);

Now if what your looking for is to display the picture you took in your own activity you can use.

String file = String.format("/sdcard/%d.jpg", System.currentTimeMillis());
//SAVE IMAGE TO file
img.setImageURI(URI.parse(file));

or

String file = String.format("/sdcard/%d.jpg", System.currentTimeMillis());
//SAVE IMAGE TO file
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(file);
img.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
