    What level of photo editing is too much?

    All good points. Photoshop is overkill for most well shot knife photos that just need a little tweak. (no software will save a poorly shot subject) I do most of my photo processing in Light Room. It is much more user friendly and intuitive. And this comes from someone who has PS in his job...

    What level of photo editing is too much?

    Good answers all. I'll add that good PS work is unnoticeable. Much like salt. If the meal tastes salty or the photo looks like it was beaten with the PS hammer it is too much. A little goes a long way. IMHO, an over PS'd image can sow the seed of distrust in the viewer...

    Week 7 photo contest voting is CLOSED- Cell phone pics
