iCloudYou can delete images from your iPhoto Library. This will not delete the Photos in your Photos Library. But you will probably not reclaim much free storage. When you migrated the iPhoto Library to Photos the Photos.app created hard links to the photos in your iPhoto Library. This way you are having different image files in Photos that are sharing the storage with the photos in the iPhoto Library. The storage will only be released if you delete the photos both in your iPhoto Library and the Photos library, see:
