There is nothing like showing off a pic and knowing that you got everything right. keep it up.
I'll agree there is nothing more satisifying than a great untouched photograph. But having said that, sometimes an unmoveable object just gets in the way of a composition, or unsightly surrounding textures take away from the subject and need cleaned up to make the photo "just right".

10 quick minutes with Paint Shop Pro cleaned up Allan's photo to highlight just the car. We're not going to hang this one one a gallery anytime soon, but it makes for a more pleasing picture that reresents only the car. Quickly cleaned up and lightly color corrected.
