Images are uploaded to directory which name is constructed from 2 parts:
MEDIA_ROOT + model's upload_to.
Then image url gets constructed from MEDIA_URL and upload_to (and image
name itself).
So if your C:\django\site_media\ is accessible with web-server, and say
C:/django/ is DOCUMENT_ROOT of Apache for virtual host django_media.local,
and your model has 'upload_to="site_media/"', then images are uploaded to
c:\django\site_media\IMG_0394.JPG and are accessible at web as
http:\\django_media.local\site_media\IMG_0394.JPG.
To access images you should setup separate Apache virtual host, I think.
