Get photos from flickr.photos API?

I want to list photos from flickr account using flickr.photos API using PHP with OAuth.

Right now to get the URLs of the images I am doing it in 2 steps which makes too many requests to the API and takes too much time:

First I request the photos using flickr.photos.search
then I loop the array of results and call the flickr.photos.getInfo for each photo apart. [result of flickr.photos.search] does not return URL of images, but getInfo does.

Is there a way to get the images with one single request?

Thanks!

Solution

Found the solution, described here: Flickr Image URLs

You can construct the source URL to a photo once you know its ID, server ID, farm ID and secret, as returned by many API methods.

The URL takes the following format:

http://farm{farm-id}.staticflickr.com/{server-id}/{id}_{secret}.jpg
    or
http://farm{farm-id}.staticflickr.com/{server-id}/{id}_{secret}_[mstzb].jpg
    or
http://farm{farm-id}.staticflickr.com/{server-id}/{id}_{o-secret}_o.(jpg|gif|png)

You can find examples and image size prefixes as well on the source page.
