That depends on how far away the star is. If the exploding star is 1,000 light years away we would see the supernova 1,000 years later. If it is 2,000 light years away we would see it 2,000 years later.

Are photos of far away space in your time or light years ago?

A 'light year' is not a time. It's a distance. Specifically, the distance that light travels in one year. So when you photograph a star that's located 10 light-years away from us, you photograph the light that left the star 10 years ago. Your photograph records the color, temperature, motion, and position of the star as of 10 years ago. If that star were to explode today, you could not know it until 10 years from today.
