What was the type of Attribute:Photo?

I think that error can only happen if the property has_type URL or URI.
The code for URL handling splits your "URL" at the colon and doesn't 
like the '['s in the schema "[[Image".

Clearly the MediaWiki Image: namespace is not a real URI.

If you were really using Type:URL in 0.7, that was a neat trick for 
getting images!  Maybe it happened to work in earlier versions because 
of the order MediaWiki and SMW parsing expands wiki text.  Can you 
remember what you were doing, maybe it needs to be mentioned in 
http://semantic-mediawiki.org/index.php/Upgrading_from_SMW_0.7_to_SMW_1.0


Anyway, if you say Property:Photo [[Has type:String]], then your wiki 
markup text to show an image in it will work in the page body and in the 
fact box.  See some tests at http://ontoworld.org/wiki/Sandbox

There are still limitations with this: the Property:Photo page and 
semantic searches won't show the image, just your wiki markup text.  If 
you have PHP coding skills, developers have proposed a dedicated 
Type:Image and other fixes for image handling on the mailing lists.
