Q: Download full resolution images from OS X mail - how do I do this?

My friend sent me 6 large resolution photos from his iCloud account to my iCloud account. All I see on my end is six small photos. In the mail preview pane to the left it states "Download full resolution images Available until Jan 10, 2016". My question is "how do I download the full resolution photos"?

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    Hello all, I found an easy way to download the full resolution images. Your Mac Mail or iOS Mail is creating a zip file for the full resolution images and store this zip file on the iCloud Server. You can access the zip file url if you look in the source of the message that should have contain the link to download the full resolution images. To see the source, you need to follow these steps: While on the selected message, click on View in the menu bar, then click on Message and then on Raw Source, or you can press Option + Command + U, this will open a new window with the raw content of the selected message. Then search for Image-Archive-Url, next to it you will see a url that begin with a http, copy this link in safari and the download will start, I just did it and it's working like any other link. Keep in mind to copy all the url with all the attributes in the url. Thanks all for your help.
