Photoshop – Enhance vs Alter

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
DSC00685

Sony F717
My shooting partner

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.

Perception

A good camera does produce better quality images but a fine image doesn’t neccessarily need to be produced from a good camera.
For Junk, it is more about noticing and expressing with a little Junk’s touch.
