Yay! https://github.com/jawj/iphoto-flickr is uploading a 30GB iPhoto library, uploading to flickr, where they offer that tasty 1TB of storage, along with nice curation and navigation features:

It finds the default library. I guess using Applescript.
The default library is on an external USB drive, in an encrypted sparsebundle.

Meanwhile, I spent a bunch of time and some money trying to downgrade to Mavericks. My wifi is slow, so I used an alternative method to download it. Didn't boot. Ordered a USB flash drive from ebay for $25. Oh well. I was in the market for a USB flash drive anyway.
experimented with python flickr apis; main one seems to be:
