Syncing all Galleries Across Tablet & Phone

My question has to do with syncing photos across the phone and tablet. I basically would really like the galleries on my phone to automatically sync together with the gallery on my Nexus 7 tablet. I take photos with my phone, then later if I want to browse them on my tablet, they of course aren't there.

So far, all I can seem to gather is that I have 2 options:
1) upload all photos to something like dropbox then download all the photos to the tablet.
2) transfer the files directly between the phone and table using an app that shares over the wifi if the two are connected to the same router.

Is that it? And if so, the problem is then if I decide to delete from one, the photo is still left on the other. Or every time I take a new photo, I have to repeat the above process.

Is there anything more automatic than this? Add to one, it adds to the other. Delete on one device it deletes from the other kinda thing? Basically have all the devices operate as if they were all on the same single system instead of two independent devices with independent galleries? All automatic so I don't even have to think about something like uploading to dropbox?
 
I believe it can be accomplished using Google+, though I admit that since I've never done it I don't know the exact details on how to do so.
 
Just have your Google+ photos syncing and backing up and you're good to go. But you do need an internet connection for it. The galleries will just appear.
 
If you use Foldersync with Dropbox, the files will be on your device with a copy on anothet device. Viewable offline.

Google drive is also an option.
