Try something like that

import urllib
from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('YOUR_URL')

# get the image source
image_path = driver.find_element_by_xpath('IMAGE_XPATH')
src = img.get_attribute('src')

# download the image
urllib.urlretrieve(src, "captcha.png")

driver.close()
