Drop the 'file://' prefix. This should work:
<img src=“/Users/rhysdavies/Desktop/htmlweb/gflogov.jpg" alt=“logo” width="128" height="128">

In fact, if your image is in the same folder as your html file, you can drop the path entirely:
<img src=“gflogov.jpg" alt=“logo” width="128" height="128">

Do some reading on file paths.
