We do not pray to images. We pray to God, and we also ask the Saints for their prayers.

I wouldn't say 'we' if I was you because that has been proven to be wrong many, many times...

Sometimes people are loose in the way they speak about such things, but no Orthodox Christian believes that they can ask an icon to do something. They can ask the person depicted in the icon to do something, and that is what they in fact do.
