Phone storage & icloud.

Hi everyone- I m confused. I m running out of iphone storage mainly cause I take lots of photos. I set up my phone to save photos to the Cloud ( iCloud) but still a big chunk (8GB) of my phone storage is still being used by photos!!! How can I free up those 8GB’s ?

thanks in advance-

You can elect to optimize photos (settings > photos) which will reduce the size of your photo library on your device.
