You are filtering the images view according to "Owned by me" and this image is a public one, owned by AWS. Since you don't have any private images, the view is empty.

If you switch to the instances view (select it on the left) you will see your new instance with the AMI you chose.

If you want to create your own image, you can do this by creating an AMI from your running instance. This new AMI will be owned by you.
