Sharing iCloud Link Waiting for Photos

Someone recently shared 43 photos with me via an iCloud link. But anytime I click on the link, it just says "Waiting for photos." I sent the link to my computer as well hoping it could load there, but it said "Please check back later. Waiting on 43 photos from...." It's been 12 hours. Is there something I need to do on my side? Or the sender needs to do?

When an album is shared , a mail will be received in your IMAP account , you have to click on subscribe link the other person on iOS device has to accept the invitation .

The Mac must be connected to the power adapter and both iOS and Mac must have latest updates and should be upgraded .
