"Moonrise" is my favorite Ansel Adams image. He worked for hours burning and dodging to get the image "right" to his eyes. No different from running a digital image through Photoshop to correct lighting and color.

There is a key difference.

In photoshop, reset your image to the original file each time you press print and "enhance" again. See how consistent your results are making the prints look identical.

If you click "save" you have created a new "negative".
