Agree with Kyle's post.


I suspect that most of this list (the non-lurkers at least) is dominated by 
journalist (news), nature, "street" and other reality based photographers.  
As such, the concept of altering one's supposed capturing of "reality" is 
such a loin aching concept.

For other photographers (beauty, product, fine art, etc), photographic 
"truth" is a nebulous concept at best....and photoshop is just the latest in 
a long line of tools to help one get what they want to see......
