Apple Photos not synced for 3 weeks

I have an iPhone and iPad and a Mac (2017). Photos taken on the iPhone are almost instantly viewable on the iPad but Apple Photos on the Mac hasn't updated since 21.Nov.

I have re-booted everything but without success.

I'd be grateful for suggestions.

Thanks

iMac 21.5″ 4K, macOS 11.0

I had a similar issue recently. I tried a few things such as editing a sync'd photo on the Mac, deleting a photo on the Mac, logging in and out of iCloud Photos. One of them did eventually kick start the sync service into working again and its OK now, but I don't know which of them did the trick though, just a bit of trial and error.
