Are following suggestions ok to cap the energy of a photon?

When the photons have enough energy in a small enough volume to collapse into a black hole
When the wavelength of the photons becomes the smallest possible. That is, some unit of space is indivisible and fundamental.

Your first point overlooks the fact that there is not necessarily a limit to the mass of a black hole. – S. McGrew Jun 07 '20 at 14:14

Does this answer your question? Are there any theoretical limits on the energy of a photon? – exp ikx Jun 07 '20 at 14:15
