Program download only Albums. How to download all photos from timeline?

I've got error with Shared albums too googleapiclient.errors.HttpError: <HttpError 500 when requesting https://photoslibrary.googleapis.com/v1/sharedAlbums?pageSize=50&alt=json returned "Internal error encountered.". Details: "Internal error encountered.">

If you don't specify any specific items to download (so no -a, -s or -f), it downloads everything including all photos on your timeline, which you can find under the 'Library' folder. I think it would be nice to be able to only download that folder and not bother with all the albums, but that's how it is now.

As for your HttpError, it means that something went wrong on Google's side, not much we can do about it. Just try again after a while.

Great idea to have option download only 'Library' folder!
