Got it. I think, The Externalizer service is the right choice to change image src from relative to absolute path. And, you might have to implement externalize service in many components (wherever you have an image).

If you don't want to do this, another option could be Sling Rewriter. Which takes a whole html as input and produce expected html. For more details, go through below docs.

 Is there any specific reason to use Externalizer or Mod re-writer for the image path?.  

Do you want to digital assets to point to some other server?. If Yes, Externalizer could be a good option.
