            $imageContent = $response->getBody()->getContents();

            // error was thrown in here cuz intervention image can't read the image from s3,but i need to read that image from s3 and place as watermark
            $waterMark = app("ImageManager")->read($imageContent);

            return $uploadedFile->place(
            $waterMark, 
            $value['position'], 
            opacity: $value['opacity']);

        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            throw new \InvalidArgumentException('Watermark image not found');
        }
    }
}

Problem

The function throws an error because Intervention Image v3 doesn’t allow creating images from a URI directly. My goal is to retrieve the watermark image from a cloud provider, process it, and place it on the uploaded image.

Question

How can I fetch an image from a cloud URI, process it, and use it as a watermark in Intervention Image v3? Is there an alternative approach or workaround for this limitation?
