There’s a useful trick here: once you’ve got your image downloaded, open it in your web browser (typically by double clicking on it in Explorer or Finder). Then note down the URL in the address bar; it will start “file://”.
That gives you a reliable absolute URL to your local image; trim from the start of the string to make it into a local URL.
