 * How do I search for a specific image? Say for example, I’m browsing Unsplash 
   itself and I find an image I like. I don’t want to bother downloading and upload
   from Unsplash, I just want to click to the tab where I have Instant Images open,
   enter a search query and have it return the specific image. Is there some identifier
   with the image that will work in the Instant Image search field?
 * I tried using the using the photo ID string from the URL (which is just a random
   string of characters) but that doesn’t work. Is there anyway to do this>

 * Hi [@prometheus-fire](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prometheus-fire/),
   
   There is no current way to search via ID.
 * Not a bad idea though, i’ll add it to the list of enhancements.
 * In the meantime, i suggest checking the tags of that particular photo and then
   search that in WordPress.
