PFFile is a parse representation of anykind of file. To get the "real" file (image), you need to call getDataInBackgroundWithBlock. Try it:

if let userPicture = object.valueForKey("Image")! as! PFFile {
   userPicture.getDataInBackgroundWithBlock({
      (imageData: NSData!, error NSError!) -> Void in
         if (error == nil) {
            let image = UIImage(data:imageData)
            self.ImageArray.append(image)
         }
      })
}
