How to see photos taken from iPhone 6+ in photo stream on my mac w/10.10.2 I have photo stream turned on, on my iPhone 6+, iPad 2 and my Mac with 10.10.2

I just took some photos with my iPhone, to share via an email.  I sat down at my Mac to type the email and attach the pictures within mac mail.  But they are not showing up in the photo stream when I click on 'Photos' under media.  I see things from yesterday, but none I've taken so far today show up.  Is there a way to 'refresh' photostram for iPhoto on my mac?

Photostream refreshes automatically. Given the camera quality of your phone the files are expected to have a certain size and need time to be uploaded. Also afaik the iPhone only uploads them when it's connected to a WiFi.
The easiest way to check if they have arrived in the cloud is checking on iCloud.com
