Google Photos has a lot of free image storage, but can't easily be used to host embedded images. However, I just found this tool, "How to Embed Google Photos into Your Website", which points you to a web app - that is, a website/bookmarklet that lets you input a Google Photos 'share' link and outputs a url for a full-sized embed. The link also covers modifying the url to resize the photo, which Google Photos also supports.
(We've got plenty of hosting space that I could use actually, but it's been so long since I uploaded anything there, since the advent of AO3 and all that, that I haven't even used ftp in years and I'm not sure I'd remember where to find my passwords. Because of the ease of getting images from the phone and desktop online, I've been using Tumblr to host anything I needed to embed here for years.)
