Yes I have, just like you I went the "wrong way round" as well. I truly have a bunch of respect for all the people who worked (or still work) in the darkroom without any use of digital editing. Me, I just wouldn't be able to only work in darkrooms because I've practically grown up with Photoshop and its advantages.

As you say; the more I work in the dark room, the more I really start to appreciate the advantages of having Photoshop around. It's truly amazing how people were able to produce these kind of almost photoshopped-like images in the darkrooms!
