The extent to which I enhance an image involves sunrise and sunset photos. My Olympus has an Art setting that decreases exposure compensation like so:
Before —
After —

Otherwise many photos, I think, just need some highlights and/or shadows
adjustment and cropping. I'll sometimes clean up distracting backgrounds. But
that's about it.

Since joining the Photography forum I have greatly enjoyed the art of, and learned a great deal from, many many gifted photographers. AndyS was, is, one of the best.
