BLOB data can hinder performance of the database if done on a massive scale. Since database space/time/etc. are usually more expensive than disk space, it's usually more efficient to store a reference to the image's path on the filesystem in the database rather than the actual image. As you have mentioned that the number of images is very large, its better to go with file link method.
