An avocation of mine is photography and it is pretty well established that photography is an art. But how much cheating is allowed in art? photographers sure have the ability to cheat with post processing on digital images but for many decades the purest would turn up their noses at some digital images and utter under their breath, "digitally enhanced" and keep walking. However I see a change in that post processing (cropping, burning, dodging, saturating) has become very common and accepted. In other words it is the final product, no matter how you got there, that is accepted as good art today.
So is modern post processed prints of a digital images cheating? Did the master painters ever cheat?
