I have discovered that I need to use DomSanitizer. With this in place then the image works.
import { DomSanitizer } from '@angular/platform-browser';
In my constructor I have ...
private DomSanitizer: DomSanitizer
And then in my template ...
<img [src]="DomSanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustUrl(selfieImage)" class="registerImage" *ngIf="selfieImage" />
Voila, it works :-)
Edit. I have been asked for a full version of my code. I'll add it below.
register.ts
