Apr 2018

Google like 2 months ago took away the "view imge" button

see this, the view image button is now longer there

BUT

all you have to do to replicate that button is simply right click on the image and choose "open image in new tab"

then copy the URL that it is now up

and paste that url into the body of the DU post
