Golang Converting image.Image to []byte

Question

Having trouble converting an image.Image to []byte. The problem spot is wrapped in dotted lines.

image_data, err := mybucket.Get(key)

if err != nil {
    panic

Adding on to Stephen's code, if you're using the aws s3 go SDK to put an object, your code would look like:

// create buffer
buff := new(bytes.Buffer)

// encode image to buffer
err = png.Encode(buff, new_image)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println("failed to create buffer", err)
}

// convert buffer to reader
reader := bytes.NewReader(buf.Bytes())

// use it in `PutObjectInput`
putInput := s3.PutObjectInput{
    Bucket: aws.String("my_bucket"),
    Body:   reader,
}

// send response
resp, err := svc.PutObject(&putInput)
