I have started to notice the rise in highly edited photographs, it seems that many people on the site have the same opinion as me on this topic. Not meaning to be rude to any of the recent highly rated photographs that this relates to, but this a photography site. I think it is unfair that to the people who do not have the computer skills to do this editing, that they have a smaller chance of doing well. The photographs which have been highly edited often have great appeal. I on many occasions have given such images very high scores and have regreted it afterwards. I was just interested on other people's points of view on this topic. Is there anyway of restricting this sort of editing without a total lock down? I find the advanced editing rules very useful just to change small unwanted effects, eg. cloning out dust specks. I think there needs to be a compromise between advanced and basic editing.
This is just a point of view, and I hope I have not offended anyone.
