This is not really a problem. But browser strips out the closing tag. Even if you manually use <img src="path.jpg"> it renders correctly in the page. Though the coding practice is to use closing tags for such elements.

Have you ever noticed even if you have typed <img src="path.jpg" /> the browser just shows the <img src="path.jpg"> when you inspect it.

So, you don't need to be worry about this.
