Just supply the path to the file:

C#

Image myImage = Image.FromFile(@"D:\Temp\MyPic.jpg");

But if you don't know it, or you haven't stored it anywhere, you will have to ask the user to locate it...

Is there any way to move my image from a specific path of my desktop to my localhost server?

Sorry? Remember that I have no idea what you are doing unless you type it in - so I have no context for what exactly you are trying to do.
Try explaining in more detail, please!

I have an image in a specific directory such as D:\Temp\MyPic.jpg of my desktop. Now i want to copy it in my localhost server. How can i do that?

Use File.Move?
Sorry, but there isn't a lot of detail there: I use File.Move, which works with my PC / NAS without problems, but it'll depend on your exact situation - and I have no idea what that is!
