Wow. So in the intervening tie between replies I did some searching and thought
this was a face-palm moment, but not event the experts know about
Qt.resolvedUrl() https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtqml-qt.html#resolvedUrl-method
image.souce = Qt.resolvedUrl(path);
So I'll save the face-palm for another time. I'm still not sure why
onImageCaptured isn't using a url?
