title: Download image from new Google+ (plus) Photos Application
body: <p>Recently Google added the Photos app for Google+ (plus) and it shows up when you launch an Intent to choose an image. However, if I select an image from Google+ Photos and try to use it in my application none of my current logic is able to return a usable URI or URL to actually get an image that I can download and manipulate. I'm currently using the "common" methods to try to manipulate the URI that can be found here on Stack Overflow and elsewhere. I can provide code if needed, but at this point I think it's kind of irrelevant since it works well for everything else except this new app. Any ideas on how to get a usable image?</p>
  
  <p>The URI looks something like the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>content://com.google.android.apps.photos.content/0/https%3A%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%&lt;a bunch of letters and numbers here&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The <code>MediaColumns.DATA</code> info always returns null and the <code>MediaColumns.DISPLAY_NAME</code> always returns image.jpg no matter what I select from the Google Photos app. If I try to paste everything from https to the end in my browser, nothing comes up. Not sure how to get usable info from this.</p>
