Framework: Certain iPhone photos fail Laravel validation

Description: Certain iPhone photos fail Laravel's validation, with error: "The image failed to upload." I've attached two photos taken from two different iphones demonstrating the problem. I am unsure of the cause, but I do not believe it to be mime type related. Opening an image that fails validation in Photoshop and then saving it back out causes continued failures, but blanking the image makes it pass validation. This makes me think there is something in the actual image content that causes validation to fail.

Steps To Reproduce:

Use this validation string:
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'image' => 'required|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,pdf,tiff,svg,ai,psd'
]);

Then attempt to upload/validate these two files:

The first one passes validation, the second one fails.

Check your php.ini 'upload_max_size' and 'post_max_size'. I think the 'upload_max_size' may default to 2M. The second photo is bigger than that. See this post on Laracasts. However, if it is actually the Laravel validation that is catching it....then maybe that's not the problem.

Oh wow, good catch. I had actually checked that, but your post made me
revisit this and I realized our development server did not have the same
50MB limit that our production webserver has. Thanks for pointing this out!
