How to setup open graph so share on Facebook shows up as photo?

Trying to share a URL on Facebook that displays as a photo in the news feed, like what Flickr is doing. For instance, if you try to share this url on Facebook: https://www.flickr.com/photos/kylesipple/17537472375/

It shows up like this:

Example Facebook Photo share

Using the open graph explorer/debugger, I don't see anything too terribly special with that page's meta tags:

Any one have ideas on what's needed to achieve something like this?

Not sure what are you asking exactly. If it is simply how to share a URL on Facebook that displays as a photo in the newsfeed you just need to set the proper Open Graphs tags (i.e. og:image). If it is something else, can you clarify?

You can find more information about photo sharing here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/webmasters https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/best-practices#images
