Photoshop can be a great tool for the honest photographer just as well as it can be the number one weapon of the deceitful. I'd rather take twenty pictures and be able to use 15 of them. Saves a whole lot of time. I don't take the picture if the animal isn't in a good position. If I know I won't be able to use it, why take it. Like I mentioned, an underexposed image can be corrected so it is as bright as reality. An image can be sharpened so the subject can be seen more clearly. These are not dishonest representations and doing such is a time saver or sometimes will allow you to honestly represent an particularly difficult to capture beauty.

Deceivers use Photoshop and other photo programs to make animals colors that they are not. Most of the time the pink newspaper and orange aspen reveal this dishonesty. I see pictures like that almost everyday. Some people are famous for these types of images. Most people know those aren't real but still some are deceived.

So, Photoshop is a good tool that can be used with honesty to make getting great representative pictures more consistent. Again, 2 Cents worth for free.
