File doesn't seem to delete
My Hard drive is almost full because on the last upgrade to Yosmite I left the photos in photo library and they were transferred to photos. I copied the files onto a back up drive (just in case) and then I moved it to the trash. I emptied the trash but my storage did not change. Im actually deleting the secured trash but still the storage is not changing too much. I also rebooted the computer a couple of times. Im not sure how to find large files [I tried]. What am I missing?
MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.4/2.2 GHz), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
