Windows 10: Shared Photos on Windows 10 Photos app

I recently edited a photo on Windows 10 Photos app on my home computer and pressed the save button. Before I could react the image was automatically shared something I did not wish to do. I saw from the drop down window that 1 photo had been shared but I have no idea where or if the photo was shared? I was not signed in to my account at the time but if anyone can advise me how to access the share and where it might be it would be appreciated. I hope that makes sense and someone can advise. Thanks
