How to deliver images effectively using asp.net

Question

My asp.net application creates, stores in memory and shows images to user. Standard HttpHandler gets thread from pool to deliver each image. I think it's not effectively. Can asp.net deliver images more effectively than HttpHandler?

Upd: images are temporary. We store it during 1 hour.

What does effective mean? I've used that technique with great success. I would do away with the handler unless you see good reason to use it. — Jeremy, Apr 18 '12 at 17:14

IIS serving the images from disk it the most efficient not sure about effective, as well as using a CDN if possible.

For a heavy loaded/visited site, it make sense to put it as file system
