Google API to get all public & private photos +1'd by the currently authenticated user

I've been cheerfully plus-one-ing all the good photos that my family and I share with each other (shared only to my family circle, not public). I assumed that at some point I'd be able to retrieve all +1'd photos and create a physical family album... however it looks like there's no way through the Google+ UI to actually retrieve that information:

Is there any API that allows you to retrieve the currently authenticated user's +1s?

As far as I can tell there is no way to see what you have +1ed you can see your comments so if you had commented on all the posts.

Activites list only appears to return public posts, being that its public only its no help to you. That and its posts and not +1s

Comments list is of no help either even if you had commented and not +1ed because its comments on a post and not a picture and you would have to know the post.

But the thing is that pictures are also accessible via the Picasa Web Albums Data API I don't have any experience with this API, but just scanned the documentation a bit. It does let you request albums and check the comments on the album it may also show a +1 on it I don't know.

IMO Google+ api is probably a dead end I don't think it has what you need. I would try digging around the Picasa api see if you cant use that instead.
