Probably the majority of people who state that the image shouldn't be photoshopped are film shooters? I was a member of a camera club, so I have heard it all. If they are film shooters then simply ask them why they use different types of film ( they all do and boast about favourite types ) and ask why they use filters. Ask them to explain the differences in the types of film and the impact they have in changing the scene. If they state that the type of film doesn't change anything then ask them why they use different types. Keep asking. Every time you hear a comment about a digital image being photoshopped ask them what they do in a darkroom to enhance an image. They will soon get the message about double standards. Either that or totally ignore them. If they represent the majority view then you are in a regressive club and you should look for another with progressive thoughts on photography. Last but not least they are probably jealous about what can be done to enhance an image.
