mod_rewrite is slow. Especially for images which are requested extremely frequently compared to their php/html counterparts. It's fine to do that for low end sites, but for anything that gets a lot of traffic you are going to be taking up server resources needlessly. I don't see what advantage adding / in front of an image src can have. SEO is for pages, not images, there's no indexable content in images.
