randomSearch

  /**
  * @desc Search a set number of images for each keyword.
  * There should'nt have doubles.
  * @param { String | Array } keywords,
  *   tag that the images must match.
  * @param { Number } quantity,
  *   the number of returned images for each Keyword.
  * [@param { Number } minPickPerPage,
  *   minimal random image picked per page, higher min less request.]
  * @return { Array } images, image object found.
  */
  flickr.randomSearch(['ballon', 'panzer'], 10000 )
  .then( console.log )
  // {
  //   "ballon": { "totalFlickr": 1312413, "photos": [ ... ]}
  //   "panzer": { "totalFlickr": 38123, "photos": [ ... ]}
  // }

you can build the image's navigator urls with the owner and id properties as : https://flickr.com/photos/${owner}/${id}

## fetchOne

  /**
  * @desc download a photo from the flickr api (use 2 requests)
  * @param { String } path, destination filename and path.
  * @param { Object } photo, flickr photo object.
  * [@param { Number } maxWidth, maximum size of the downloaded photo.]
  * return { String } path.
  */
  flickr.fetchOne = function( path, photo )
  .then( console.log ) // path

don't overdo parallel downloadn the socket will hangup.
