+
+# Working With Images In Gatsby
+
+Optimizing images is a challenge on any website. To utilize best practices for performance across devices, you need multiple sizes and resolutions of each image. Luckily, Gatsby has several useful [plugins](/docs/plugins/) that work together to do that for images on [page components](/docs/building-with-components/#page-components).
+
+
+The recommended approach is to use [GraphQL queries](/docs/querying-with-graphql/) to get images of the optimal size or resolution, then, display them with the [`gatsby-image`](/packages/gatsby-image/) component. 
+
+
+## Query Images With GraphQL
+
+Querying images with GraphQL allows you to access the image's data as well as perform transformations with [Sharp](https://github.com/lovell/sharp), a high-performance image processing library.
+
+You'll need a few plugins for this:
+* [`gatsby-source-filesystem`](/packages/gatsby-source-filesystem/) plugin allows you to [query files with GraphQL](docs/querying-with-graphql/#images)
+* [`gatsby-plugin-sharp`](/packages/gatsby-plugin-sharp) powers the connections between Sharp and Gatsby Plugins
+* [`gatsby-transformer-sharp`](/packages/gatsby-transformer-sharp/) allows you to create multiples images of the right sizes and resolutions with a query
+
+If the final image is of a fixed size, optimization relies on having multiple resolutions of the image. If it is responsive, that is it stretches to fill a container or page, optimization relies on having different sizes of the same image.  See the [Gatsby Image documentation for more information](/packages/gatsby-image/#two-types-of-responsive-images).
+
+You can also use arguments in your query to specify exact, minimum, and maximum dimensions. See the [Gatsby Image documentation for complete options](/packages/gatsby-image/#two-types-of-responsive-images).
+
+This example is for an image gallery where images stretch when the page is resized. It uses the `sizes` method and the size fragment to grab the right data to use in `gatsby-image` component and arguments to set the maximum width as 400px and maximum height as 250px. 
+```jsx
+export const query = graphql`
+  query indexQuery {
+    fileName:file(relativePath: { eq: "images/myimage.jpg" }) {
+      childImageSharp {
+        sizes(maxWidth: 400, maxHeight: 250) {
+          ...GatsbyImageSharpSizes
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+`;
+```
+
+## Optimizing Images With Gatsby Image
+
+[`gatsby-image`](/packages/gatsby-image/) is a plugin that automatically creates React components for optimized images that:
+
+
+> * Loads the optimal size of image for each device size and screen resolution
+> * Holds the image position while loading so your page doesn't jump around as images load
+> * Uses the "blur-up" effect i.e. it loads a tiny version of the image to show while the full image is loading
+> * Alternatively provides a "traced placeholder" SVG of the image
+> * Lazy loads images, which reduces bandwidth and speeds the initial load time
+> * Uses [WebP](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/) images, if browser supports the format
+
+
+Here is an image component that uses the query from the previous example:
+
+```
+<Img sizes={data.fileName.childImageSharp.sizes}  />
+```
+
+
+## Using Fragments To Standardize Formatting
+
+What if you have a bunch of images and you want them all to use the same formatting?
+
+A custom fragment is an easy way to standardize formatting and re-use it on multiple images:
+
+```
+export const squareImage = graphql`
+fragment squareImage on File {
+      childImageSharp {
+        sizes(maxWidth: 200, maxHeight: 200) {
+          ...GatsbyImageSharpSizes
+        }
+      }
+}
+`;
+```
+
+The fragment can then be referenced in the image query:
+
+```
+
+export const query = graphql`
+  query imageGallery {
+    image1:file(relativePath: { eq: "images/image1.jpg" }) {
+      ...squareImage
+    }
+
+    image2:file(relativePath: { eq: "images/image2.jpg" }) {
+      ...squareImage
+    }
+
+   image3:file(relativePath: { eq: "images/image3.jpg" }) {
+      ...squareImage
+    }
+  }
+`;
+
+```
