That's what I'm attempting to.
BUT:
the question is: how can I figure out the database-saved value of the photo
class MyModel(models.Model):
photo = ImageField(upload_to='temp')
def save(self):
if self.id:
# now self.photo points to the requested image being
uploaded in the admin, not the previously saved one
