Q: How do I delete photos from iCloud without deleting them from my devices?

Greetings all!

 

I have a quick question -- I have photo library turned off, but it was turned on for a bit while I was importing several thousand old photos. So, some of those got uploaded. And they take up space I don't want taken up on both iCloud and my phone. I'd like to delete those photos from iCloud without deleting them from my main computer. How can I do this? When I select delete in iCloud, even though I have photo library turned off, it asks me if I want these photos deleted from my computer and my iCloud. Help!

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4), El Capitan Beta Tester
