If you delete a photo from iCloud Photo Library, is it gone forever?

Leo Kostizen wants to migrate from Aperture to Photos and use iCloud Photo Library. However, he’s worried that once he’s enabled the cloud-based photo syncing and storage system on all his iOS devices and his Mac that a deletion in one place deletes the items everywhere.</p>

If a deletion is made on any device, the same picture is deleted on all devices connected to the cloud…What if I retain full-resolution pictures on my iMac? Will the deletion also be made here?</p><p>
I can see a grandchild accidentally deleting a few pictures on iPad and me not even realizing that they are gone. I always keep a backup but it would be difficult to tell whether I need to restore.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2985081/software-photography/if-you-delete-a-photo-from-icloud-music-library-is-it-gone-forever.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
