Is there any shortcut for mmd to output a an image with a link, as follows in HTML?

<figure>
<a href="http://www.somelink.com"><img src="some-image.png" alt="Figure caption" /></a>
<figcaption>Figure caption</figcaption>
</figure>

   You mean:

   [![image]](http://foo.com/)
   
   [image]: http://bar.com/image.png

   (It will just be an image, not a figure)

   I mean something to combine the two snippets below into a linked caption, as in the example html snippet initially posted. Obvious objection would be that this is a specialised case, requiring new syntax?

   COMBINE:

   A linked image

   [![image]](http://www.google.com)

   [image]: http://www.google.com.au/images/nav_logo7.png

   WITH

   A caption

   ![Figure caption][id1]

   [id1]: http://www.google.com.au/images/nav_logo7.png

   The example that you sent didn't actually do anything, or it got mangled. In either case, the example I gave does what you wanted, except for the `<figure>` part.

   If you need something more specific, that's what HTML is for. This is too specialized to be a separate part of the MMD syntax.
