By Opening iPhoto you should be able to recover them. The software will propose to you to transfer them.

not I do not think… because I understand that they are not photographs not taken with the camera of the iPhone, but of the photographs which were on Mac before the formatting of the hard drive and which were also on the iPhone (by synchronization).

For retransfer these photographs in opposite direction, one needs a utility on Mac of the PhoneView type…. but this solution will be imperfect. Indeed the photographs synchronized with a iPhone or a iPOD Touch are not retransfer in their resolution of origin but in a resolution much weaker (800x600 or 1024x768 I believe… not more).

Thus what can be recovered on the iPHONE they are only versions with very weak resolution of the photographs of origin….

On your iPhone, you have only version with very weak resolution of the photographs (640x480), to in no case you will not find your original photographs there!

So really you want to recover at least these versions low resolution, looks at side of a utility like PhoneView
