A folder or file? Have you tried going to settings... Applications... Gallery and clear data?
Do you have dropbox app on your phone? I think it also has some instant upload features that might be causing that? If so, might want to try clearing data for this as well.
1. Make sure instant upload is turned off in google +
2. Turn off photo sync for your Google account
3. Clear data from gallery app.
