Hey @Sathya_Narayanan,
I had a quick look and that URL appears to be an image already so you can do it with something like this…
In the HTTP Request node set the response to File and if you check the binary data you will see your image.
From there it is just a case of using the Write Binary File node to output the file to the filesystem, There is a tricky bit though as there is no real filename or extension I have cheated a bit and used the replace function on the mimetype so it won’t be perfect but should get you started.

Good luck and happy automating.
