How to get static image url from flickr URL?

Is it possible to get static image URL from the flickr URL via an api call or some script ?
For eg :
Flickr URL -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/53067560@N00/2658147888/in/set-72157606175084388/
Static image URL -> http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3221/2658147888_826edc8465.jpg

Solution

  • In your Flickr URL, the photo ID is 2658147888. You use flickr.photos.getSizes to get the various sizes of the photo available, and pick the url you want from that, depending on the size. There are several ways to access the API so please specify if you want more details for a particular language.
