Yes
Albums (as events and photos and last "n" months, etc) are not places - they are ways to view photos in the library - remove the photo form the library and it can not be viewed from anywhere since it is gone
You are conceptually not understanding how a database works and you are things of a file based system - iphoto is a database and photos are not duplicated when you organize them

The Note below describes what's affected when a photo is deleted from different locations in the library:
Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library
1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the trash bin as above.
NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurences of that photo in the library.
Thank you. That was a big help. I understand the difference between organizing (albums) and the data base (photos).
However before I understood this, I created several albums and assigned a key word to the photos while I was in
albums not photos. Is there some way I can rectify my error?
