Honor 8 - Took Photo, phone battery died a few moments after, unable to find photo

[Android Central Question]

I have a Honor 8 phone. Yesterday I took a one in a million photo of my son, right before a big moment. Shortly after, the phone died.
When I got it to a charger that evening, I brought up the gallery app. The photo thumbnail was there for about 2 seconds, then disappeared, with the other images restacking upwards.

I've been digging through the photos trying to find it, and looking in any folder I can think of to see if it got shuffled to a cache or recycle.

So far no luck.

Camera setting has photos priority to SD card, but I've looked in both SD card and internal.

Any ideas. It would be a huge bummer if I can't recover this photo.

Very much appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Charles
