remove synced photos

I have photos in an album labeled "From My Mac" that I want removed. I've checked under iTunes and I do not have it selected to sync any photos so how can I remove these?

Sync it with the “sync from selected albums” checked but don’t select any albums.

All new "Live" iOS 16.2 iPhone photos are now imported twice into Monterey Photos Version 7.0 (460.0.120) Since the iOS 16.2 update to my 2020 iPhone SE (2nd generation), all new "Live" photos are now imported twice into Monterey Photos Version 7.0 (460.0.120), once as a 3-second movie .MOV file, and also as the 'Live' photo with a .JPG extension. Looking at the 'More Info' for a newly-imported "Live" image, the .mov file is 5.5MB, and the JPG is 3.1MB, so obviously, each file is now using more that twice the space used by the previous 'Live' photo alone. Obviously, I can delete the unwanted video clips, but I'm just checking to see if there's some new Photos setting or IOS Camera or Photos setting I've overlooked. Is this an Apple strategy to sell me a new iPhone and a new Mac with much more storage?
