How to link directly to an unsplash.com image (via Unsplash API)
Raw
readme.md
  1. Search for photo by viewing on unsplash.com and finding ID in URL. For example https://unsplash.com/photos/photo-of-green-leafed-plants-QKo-op_gR9I which has ID QKo-op_gR9I
  2. Grab your access key from Unsplash API dashboard: ACCESS_KEY_GOES_HERE
  3. Grab JSON file by plugging in ID and client_id into API so URL looks like this: https://api.unsplash.com/photos/QKo-op_gR9I?client_id=ACCESS_KEY_GOES_HERE
  4. Pull out the regular size URL from the JSON in "urls > regular" key (which is 1080 wide) and use that in the site
