My preferred editing software is NONE. Any photo worth it’s merit is right out of the camera.

But isn’t Photoshop just the same as a darkroom Spaz wink

Hoe have we swapped sides of the “argument”

ARE YOU CALLING ME A HOE? hahaha

Depends who’s using photoshop. I rarely open that program anymore because Aperture offers all the features a “photo processor” would do in the printing process.

A well shot photo requires little be done in the print process (depending on the subject matter).
Depending on the roll of film being processed/printed(different light/colour balance between shots) and the print size(for cropping).

All photo processing is done to trick the viewers brain/eyes into seeing the captured moment for what the photographer (or photo processor) intends it be.
Different colours(light waves) transfer inaccurately for print (or whatever medium it be used on film,lcd,plamsa,projector,paper,cotton…) and can vary depending on background colour, contrasting shapes, objects and light. All these change how the brain perceives an image.
Correct processing can only be done through knowledge of how the image will be displayed.

This is why artists throughout time frame their images before sale - to set it apart from it’s surroundings.
Some images wont look as good in a certain room/setting.

The visual medium is a very psychologically challenging art-form to get right. Studying how the mind functions is an important aspect when processing photo’s.

I will process the same photo differently depending on it’s intended use, but that photo shot correctly may not appear right when viewed as a raw image by the human eye because of the brains processes.

I go through similar challenges when editing video.
