First would be to make sure under Settings/ Accounts & Sync, look under Google then under the associated Gmail account and make sure sync is turned off for your Photos. Then when you delete them from your phone it won't touch the same photos store on your Gmail/Google cloud space.

I'm sure there is some other things to look at but this would be a good starting place.
