Apple has instructions [0].
Looks like there is a download link accessible via the web interface on icloud.com. But you can also set an auto-syncing folder on OSX/Windows and copy them from there using standard OS commands.

- mrweasel 3y agoThanks, annoyingly it seems like there's no automated solution for photos.
- wil421 3y agoSetting up a Smart Folder in MacOS may work but it’s been a long time since I’ve used them. I use rsync to backup photos to my NAS. It looks like you can use rsync on an iCloud directory.[1] I just ordered a new MacBook Pro and plan to use them method for my NAS and to iCloud.

- allarm 3y agoI sync photos with my google account. I realize it’s not ideal, but at least something.
- coldtea 3y agoYou can set Photos.app to download all photos locally (on the Mac at least)
- HWR_14 3y agoThere is a Photos program Apple makes for Windows, and I think it has the same option.
