From here you check and see what's available. Look at the end of the address _s.jpg by changing this you can get different sizes.

change the s to a b for the largest size but that may not be accessible. for example

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2081/...705dbdb9_b.jpg

If you get unavailable remove the _s and it will look like this

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2081/...67705dbdb9.jpg

I hope this helps
As I have noted in posts about this over at E&V, it is also sometimes possible, usually only on older flickr postings, to get the largest size by using _o.jpg on the end, rather than _b.jpg.
