You have a double media in your HTML because upload_to
appends to the MEDIA_ROOT / MEDIA_URL. Since you have “media/images” in the upload_to
this makes it appear twice. If you want to get rid of it, just make upload_to
as “images” and don’t forget to move the directory if you want to see already uploaded images.
Second being that your template has a slight issue:
<img src="/{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ myobject_instance.image }}">
should be:
<img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ myobject_instance.image }}">
The initial / will makes it an url that Django won’t find. You’ll get “//media/media/images/8734HDFJ93.jpeg” instead of “/media/media/images/8734HDFJ93.jpeg”

If you do inspect element in your rendered page, you will see the URL which is generated for the image. Instead of using the variable of “MEDIA_URL”, you can use this template function:
{% get_media_prefix %}
So, finally it would be something like this:
<img src="{% get_media_prefix %}{{ myobject_instance.image }}">
Don’t forget to include this line at the beginning of your template file:
{% load static %}
