Note that {{ MEDIA_URL }} is strictly a variable reference and takes no
other inputs. You are treating it as a template tag, which are enclosed
using {% %}, hence the reason you are receiving this error.

What you likely want is this:
<img src="{{ pht.photo_taken.url }}" class="responsive-img"
style='max-height:100px;' alt="face">
(Note that the src= has " surrounding both variables, and that I'm using
pht.photo_taken.url rather than pht.photo_taken.name, which should only be
used to reference the actual file on disk per the docs.)
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/models/fields/#imagefield
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/models/fields/#django.db.models.FileField.storage
Which should render to something like this:
<img
src="/media/wildlifephotos/2017/07/26/2017-06-30_Lansdowne_-_Syrphus_Sp_A_01.JPG"
class="responsive-img" style='max-height:100px;' alt="face">
I don't even think you need MEDIA_URL in your templates given the .url
shortcut provided by the ImageField model field. That's probably why
MEDIA_URL is not made available in the template by default:
