Q: I see only the last months pictures in iCloud on my pc

I can only see and download the last months pictures from my icloud to my pc... how can I download all my pictures in the iCloud? I downloaded and installed the latest icloud software from apple... it looks ok but I only see a part of my pictures... even not all from last month but only a weird collection of it...

Any help or does Apple wants to make me pay for more icloud storage? :-(

iPhone 6, Windows 8

    Hello, sambadagio.  

     

    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  

     

    I understand that you want to download your iCloud Photo Library to your computer.  Just to let you know, you will not need to purchase any additional iCloud Storage for this scenario.  At this time, the iCloud Photo Library feature is only available on the following platforms:

     

    If you want to turn on iCloud Photo Library on all of your devices, follow these steps:

     

    • In iOS 8.3 or later, go to Settings > iCloud > Photos, then turn on iCloud Photo Library.
    • In OS X 10.10.3 or later, go to System Preferences > iCloud > Options next to Photos, then select iCloud Photo Library.

    This means that you will be limited to accessing the last 30 days of your photos via Photostream via the iCloud control panel.  However, as a solution, you can download your iCloud photos by accessing them on a web browser.

     

    Archive or make copies of your iCloud data
