you can try something like this:
<?php
$image = file_get_contents('http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=15719%20OAKLEAF%20RUN%20DRIVE,LITHIA,FL,33547,US&zoom=8&size=150x100&markers=color%3ablue%7Clabel%3aS%7C11211&sensor=false');
$fp = fopen('ae.png', 'w+');
fputs($fp, $image);
fclose($fp);
unset($image);
?>
