To get just the path of an image from it's URI:

file_create_url($node->field_image['und'][0]['uri']);

More information on file_create_url() can be found here: http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes%21file.inc/function/file_create_url/7

To get the path of an image created using an image style from it's URI use:

image_style_url($style, $node->field_image['und'][0]['uri']);

More information on image_style_url() can be found here: http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!image!image.module/function/image_style_url/7
