There is a difference between normal post-production (cropping, defining colors, adjusting brightness, removing noise, ...) and adding details that just aren‘t there in the raw image.

    One involves geometric meaning (e.g. edges, Bayer artifacts, clipped highlights), and the other involves semantic meaning (e.g. sky, faces, eyes). Dodging and burning is in the latter category and is equally deceptive.
