I Paid Photoshop ‘Experts’ to edit this photo better than me - Summary

Summary

The speaker recounts a humorous experience of attempting to edit a photo of a mountain into a desert, which was not well received. The video is sponsored by Fiverr, and the speaker plans to find freelance photo editors on the platform to see if they can improve the initial edit.

The speaker logs into Fiverr and browses through a list of potential editors, highlighting their skills, experience, and pricing. The speaker then reviews the edit provided by each freelancer, providing feedback on aspects such as shadow direction, color matching, and proportions.

One of the freelancers, Sammy, stands out due to their excellent blending of the mountain into the foreground and their attention to detail in creating a believable desert scene. The speaker concludes the video by awarding Sammy the "Shadow Mountain Champion of 2020" title and encourages viewers to use the code "Peter McKinnon" at checkout for a 15% discount on Fiverr.
