Old photos added to Photos Library on my Mac not uploading /syncing to iCloud

I've recently copied some old photos stored on CD into my 'Photos Library photoslibrary' on my Mac external drive, and I have iCloud Photos ticked under Preferences, but they are not moving onto my iCloud. I have plenty of iCloud space spare. I don't know what else to do. Can anyone please help. Thanks

Open photos

Select library

Scroll to the bottom

Check the current item count and beneath that, iCloud status.
