Hi, i am a an intermediate in photography and I am also familiar with new computer software that provides photo editing capabilities. What is your opinion regarding the fact of editing photos using software like photoshop and sell the product?is that possible?

Not sure if I understand your question, are you asking how large a part post-production plays in our work flow, or what tools we use/recommend for raw processing etc?

For editorial use there are substantial restrictions on what editing you can/should do, but for stock photography I imagine that most photographers would agree that whatever results in the best (or best selling) image in the end, with the least amount of effort, is fine.

I'd have to agree with Gudmund

Architectural competitions forbid any form of enhancement of the original files so images need to right first time however other areas of commercial photography increasingly demand post shoot enhancement - it's a commercial balance - time spent versus returns.
