-### Image Optimization
-
-All requests to `"/_next/image?url=..." ` will be routed to a separate image optimization lambda. To take advantage of this feature, use the `<Image />` component as:
-
-```ts
-// MyPage.tsx
-import Image from 'next/image'
-
-function MyPage() {
-   return (
-      <>
-         <Image src="/path/to/image/in/bucket/hello.png" alt={...} width={...} />
-         <Image src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1600804340584-c7db2eacf0bf" alt={...} width={...} />
-      </>
-   )
-}
-```
-
-Note: the `<Image />` component handles the URL encoding and prefixes the `src` with `"/_next/image?url=..."`
-
-If you need to optimize external images, configure `next.config.js`:
-(Please see [doc](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next/image#remote-patterns) on domain patterns.)
-
-```ts
-// next.config.js
-const nextConfig = {
-  ...
-  images: {
-    remotePatterns: [
-     {
-       hostname: "**.unsplash.com",
-     },
-    ],
-  },
-};
