Can’t Find Photos

About 2000 photos have disappeared from my iPad Air2. Does anyone know how or where I might find them, and how I can put them back in my photo library? Thanks.

iPad Air 2, iPadOS 15

Why do photos not appear in ipad Photos/LIbrary (but I found them in recents!) Took Photos with Ipad. 5 days later I could not find them! After hours of searching (and serious panic), I found them in "recents", but NOT in Library. I hope this is helpful to people, and I hope someone gives me a gold star or whatever, but it would also be very useful if someone explained this: Isn't Library the superset, the sum total of all pics stored locally on the ipad? Why on earth would recent photos NOT be in Library "folder" ? THanks, -TPC

Were these photos/images ever backed up to Apple iCloud or to a full Mac or Windows PC computer?
