You can choose to upload a file or a folder, just click on one and follow prompts to find the desired image/folder etc and add to your Drive cloud.
Your google drive account stores documents/images on-line.
Some of the benefits of using a cloud over other storage devices are:

You can sign in to your Google account on any device and access saved docs.
Right click on a file you want to share with another user and select “share” and a shared file will be created. You will be asked to enter the email address of the person you want grant access. (see image)
You can now build a shared folder that can be accessed by multiple users.
