I thought it was universally known that photographs usually have post processing effects (filters) applied to them. Post processing effects allow the artist to place their hand on the picture. It's clear that the photos have been touched by the artist and they have achieved a look that the photographer was going for. Most photographers alter the raw photograph data.
