I have a Mac Mini (updated to latest macOS) with ALL my photos in the Photos App. I have an iPhone 15 Pro (updated to the latest iOS) with (until recently) only a TINY subset of my photos. I do not use iCloud for my photos. I do NOT want ALL my photos (or even thumbnails of those photos) on my iPhone.

Note that this is reflected in the amount of iCloud storage in use in the screen shot above.
On my Mac, I have photos going back to 1947 (slides that were digitized and saved in Photos. But suddenly (and I didn't notice exactly when this happened) these photos appeared on my iPhone as well. And clicking on a year (say 1947) brings up the "Days" and I can see photos from that period.
If I then click on a thumbnail of one of those photos it opens but there is no trash icon to get rid of it, unlike opening a photo taken recently (the tugs in this example.)
So can anyone shed a clue as to what happened, what I clicked on to create this mess and how I get rid of these unwanted images on my iPhone?
