According to the Facebook page, there are two types of information to an image you just downloaded looks like someone who was previously marked in Facebook propose automatically:

Facebook page:

"About the photos you marked - If you have selected a photo, associate labels to your account, to compare what these photos have tagged and store a summary of this comparison, if you have never been marking a photo together. Facebook or not in all the photos of you has on facebook, this summary information was not created or stored for you.

By comparing the new photos on the information in the pictures that you tagged stored - If you or your friends upload images, it can automatically have the summary information about what we have selected photos stored together, to compare. The results of this comparison can also opt for group photos or photos that they want to suggest, are used. You and your friends always have the option to ignore these recommendations.
