If you sync photos to iCloud and you delete a photo on your phone, it will delete on the cloud. iCloud is not an archive. It is a syncing service. If you deleted the photos in the last 30 days or less, your photos will go to a folder called Recently Deleted. You can restore them from there. If however, it's been over 30 days, the photos are gone.
