Download shared photos from Photos app

Hello. Does anybody knows how to download ALL my albums from 'Shared Photos' in Photos app to an external device? (HD or PenDrive). I am very uncomfortable with the idea of paying the cloud for eternity once I am not able (so far) to download my photos from cloud. It seems to me like a trap... 😕

Anyone that can access a shared album can download the photos and keep them forever. On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the photo > User uploaded file > Save Image. On your Mac, select the photo or video, control-click > Import. You can only save shared videos to a Mac or PC
