Then you cannot have some photos in iCloud and others not. Either all photos in your Photos Library that is syncing with iCloud will be in iCloud or none at all.
You could create a second Photos library, that is not syncing with iCloud.
Do the following:
- Launch Photos and select all photos in the album you want to remove from iCloud Photo Library.
- Export the photos with "File > Export > Export ... Original...".
- Select a folder on your Desktop to export them to.
When the export has finished, delete the photos from the Photos Library. Quit Photo, then launch it again while holding down the options key. Select to create a new Photos library. Import the exported photos to the new library.
