Here's some javascript that does this nicely:

    var options = {
        uri: uri,
        encoding: null
    };
    request(options, function(error, response, body) {
        if (error || response.statusCode !== 200) { 
            console.log("failed to get image");
            console.log(error);
        } else {
            s3.putObject({
                Body: body,
                Key: path,
                Bucket: 'bucket_name'
            }, function(error, data) { 
                if (error) {
                    console.log("error downloading image to s3");
                } else {
                    console.log("success uploading to s3");
                }
            }); 
        }   
    });
