I would tell her, but phrase it as "I think this was sent by mistake "....that gives her an out. Even if she knows that's not the case and you know that's not the case, it could save your friendship.
Either way, she needs to know.

I would tell her and lose all respect if she stayed with him so would move on from her, it is simple to me and if she wants to stick her head int he sand up to her

Gross - but is there anyway it could be a mistake and meant for her?
That will be his defence.

I did screenshot (and sent straight to my secure folder so no chance of DD11 seeing it) and I am furious that this will affect our friendship as I'm aware she's put up with a lot of crap from him previously and she will either put up with this or this will be the thing that tips her over the edge to kicking him out, either way I'm now slap bang in the middle of it through no choice of my own

It could probably ruin your friendship at future gatherings if she will be thinking he wants you. I would leave it. But reply to him and ask him why he thinks its ok to do that too your friend.

Yes you have to tell her . What a creepy man . And deluded . WTF does he think your reaction will be ? Oh great because that pic makes me want you too ? Prick . Literally.
