And for the record, photoshopping, pre/post processing and adjusting
photos in a dark room has been done since Joseph Niepce took his first
photograph in 1826 using a pewter sheet and abestos to produce an
image.


Speaking of Photoshop, I think it goes back farther than Joe's pewter.

What about Da Vinci and his pin hole camera (Camera Obscura) using
horse pee and egg yolk on canvas?
