I was surprised to see photojournalists using Photoshop. Isn't that unethical? But it's the same thing: you correct the image to match what your eyes see.

- shard 6y agoOf course journalists use Photoshop. Before digital cameras, journalists also pushed or pulled the film processing, dodged and burned parts of the image, exposed different parts of the photo paper by different amounts, used different processing chemicals for developing the photo paper. It's not about correcting the image to match what your eyes see, it's an artistic and creative act because a photograph can never represent what the eyes see, and photographers have to interpret the image to get their message across.
