Q: Sharing Limits, Video and/or File Size

Are there limits to what you can and can't Share with iCloud Photo Sharing?

 

I have a 54 second (259 MB) video file that I'm trying to Share.

 

Select the video

Choose Share, Add Comments, Pick an existing Shared Album.

 

Nothing happens.

The video never shows up.

 

Also, I can't seem to find any kind of progress status window. I assume it takes time to upload a large file, but no where can I find where it's working.

 

So, is there a limit? I can't seem to find one through my archaic search methods.
