+import "@pnp/sp/webs";
+import "@pnp/sp/lists";
+import "@pnp/sp/fields";
+
+const sp = spfi(...);
+
+// create a new image field called 'My Field' in web.
+const field: IFieldAddResult = await sp.web.fields.addImageField("My Field");
+// create a new image field called 'My Field' in the list 'My List'.
+const field2: IFieldAddResult = await sp.web.lists.getByTitle("My List").fields.addImageField("My Field");
+
+// we can use this 'field' variable to run more queries on the field:
+const r = await field.field.select("Id")();
+
+// log the field Id to console
+console.log(r.Id);
