The development team let us test the API and with a plenty of opportunities to use Flickr.
Today I tested the flickrapi python module.
I used the python 2.7 version and pip to install it.
C:\>cd Python27
C:\Python27>cd Scripts
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install flickrapi

Then you need to know your user_id.
This can be done by asking api online with your username and the result will be something like this: xxxxxxxx@Nxx.
The example I used is from documentation and I change with my API key to test this python module.
>>>import flickrapi
>>>
>>>api_key = u'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
>>>api_secret = u'YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY'
>>>
>>>flickr = flickrapi.FlickrAPI(api_key, api_secret)
>>>photos = flickr.photos.search(user_id='xxxxxxxx@Nxx', per_page='10')
>>>sets = flickr.photosets.getList(user_id='xxxxxxxx@Nxx')
