Where have you deleted them from?  the phone, the cloud?

from the phone

I wasn't aware that there was a "trash can" from which to delete from.  I thought, once deleted it was gone.

i found it. in Photo app you permantly delete your recent deleted. they stay 30 days unless you go in and permantley delete/ thanks

And this is the stock app yes?

[mama23dogs]

Yes.   This is an IOS 8 feature.  OOn the iPad and iPhone one of the albums is labeled "recently deleted"

perhaps they they could have called it "pending".   I think it's dopey, but then all my photos load to DropBox.

Yes, I was not clear as to the app in question.  OP only stated "Photo app."
