Jan 21, 2015 6:28 AM in response to Spodeworldby Winston Churchill,★HelpfulYour PC will always download full resolution versions.
If you are using iCloud photos library on your mobile device and you use the optimise option, your photos may or may not be reduced in resolution (this depends on whether they needed to be optimised which is automatically determined by your free space). I'm not 100% sure but I think that if the image is optimised you may download the full resolution image simply by opening it on your mobile device. However if you are in any doubt, putting it in edit mode (temporarily) does definitely download the full resolution version (if it's not already on your device).
