    You can still use iTunes (or /Applications/Image Capture) to back up photos that are on your device. Think of Photo Stream as a way to easily see/share photos across devices. This is handy for my wife and I when we take pics of the kids - where we can see images taken by our iPhones and iPads, and then upload them to Facebook, Instagram, etc.

    The backup process remains the same that you might be used to with iTunes - the iCloud is simply for accessing across devices.
