I'd be willing to bet that you have NOT seen a photo that HASN'T been touched up in any magazine in the past five years, and in any MAJOR magazine in the past ten! Running an image through PhotoShop is just one of the parts of the post-production work flow all images go through before publication.

And regarding the pictures, I can clearly see the benefit of the "touch-up", but I'd gladly give extraneous parts of my body for either...
It's a dirty job but somebody has to do it.

I confess there are times that I wish I WASN'T shooting travel, nature, and wildlife...
