You could set an application variable that points to the images directory.
then just reference it where ever you need it through the directory
structure.

<cfset application.root = "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\images\">
<cfset application.webRoot = "http://yourdomain.com/images/">
EX:
<img name="b2" src="#application.webroot#1.gif" width=147 height=20
border=0> 
OR
<CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD" nameconflict="MAKEUNIQUE"
        FILEFIELD="FileContents"
        DESTINATION="#Application.root#images\"
        Attributes="Archive, Normal">

I hope that helps.

What if this isn't the case and the site begins in a sub directory?
