^Nice photos mate, dig the semi long exposure.
What do you shoot with out of curiosity?

It cannot be meddled with or it looses its purity and charm spawned by raw power of light or lines, further mixed with imperfections that only add more flavour.
If retouching is such taboo then why do cameras have the ability to shoot RAW formats for editing in post? 99% of consumer cameras can't capture the dynamic range of lighting in a scene and the only way to correct that is by post processing. Adjusting curves, white balance, etc in post is not cheating, cameras rarely see the scene spot on like we do.
