I am working on a website with a lot of pro photos. So I've decided to create 4 different formats for each photo:

*_sm.jpg - thumbnail

when you click on a photo you will get a bigger photo in the special gallery:

*.jpg - 1920 (width) for desktop version.

*_mobile.jpg - 1000 (width) for mobile website.
+ in the gallery there will be a link to the page with original photo 6000x4000.

By this method I have 4 formats and the user can open the source photo if he needs it.

Should I create a sitemap for images? Which of those have I to include there and which is better to block for index (in htaccess for example).

You can use Google image extensions for sitemaps to give Google more information about the images available on your pages. Image sitemap information helps Google discover images that we might not otherwise find (such as images your site reaches with JavaScript code), and allows you to indicate images on your site that you want Google to crawl and index.

You can use a separate sitemap to list images, or you can add image information to an existing sitemap.
