Is it possible to just get a "set" using a Flickr's feeds?

I'm trying to grab photos from a specific "set" on Flickr as opposed to the entire user's photostream. Does anyone know if this is possible using Flickr's feeds (http://www.flickr.com/services/feeds/)? It looks like you can only select tags, but I need to grab a set. (tags are not an option)

  • Subscribe to URLs formatted as follows:

    http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne
    ?set=<photoset_id>
    &nsid=<user_id>

    For example, http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne?set=72157622566768892&nsid=8344375@N07

    The list on the feeds page linked in the question is not an exhaustive list of all of the available feeds from Flickr, as hinted at by:

    While feeds are linked to throughout the site, some can be further customised with additional parameters, documented below.
