Photoshop is often associated, by the ill-informed ones, with false images, . While it is true that Photoshop can be used to change an image, that is not the main purpose. Photoshop is used to enhance an image. And that is exactly how i use it. To enhance, not to alter.
My 2 shooting partners, none of which are DSLRs:
Canon Ixus 50

More often than not, especially when travelling, it is difficult to spend time fiddling with the camera. For me, it is usually notice, shoot, get home, review and enhance.
