I think that there is also another a point for consideration.
This is where a photo is changed or has elements added (like your table and chairs in dappled shade) to show a potential result of buying the product. I think this is acceptable use of Photoshop.
However the unacceptable side is where news or other journalistic images are deliberately changed in order to mislead the viewer to either make the photo more shocking or saleable. However the end game is deception.
We also need to be aware that some people are more easily deceived than others!
Indeed. My dappled shade image isnt a photograph ...in my eyes....but the customer is happy to call it one!
But I suspect its more about when a spectacular CS adaptation is shown alongside the best efforts of an in camera version that people cry 'foul'. Apples and Pears.
