            $fileName   = time() . '.' . $image->getClientOriginalExtension();

            $img = Image::make($image->getRealPath());
            $img->resize(120, 120, function ($constraint) {
                $constraint->aspectRatio();                 
            });

            $img->stream(); // <-- Key point

            //dd();
            Storage::disk('local')->put('images/1/smalls'.'/'.$fileName, $img, 'public');
