how long do you spend 'improving' your pictures on photoshop?

i hate being so old fashioned and closed minded. i want to understand why people do it.

i want to know why people would rather spend most of the time editing on photoshop than taking more pictures and learn from their mistakes.
or try to achieve their vision manually...

i have a slight obsession with old SLR cameras and rangefinders. i've tried editing my picture on photoshop last night but it just doesn't feel the same. in fact i felt awful.
why do i feel that way? does anyone else feel the same way or is it just me?
 
None- I prefer to get it right in camera.

Here's some shots, no photoshop or adjustments (except the motorcycle, had some dust spots).

There are times when it is good to use photoshop, such as white balance, dust spots, or if an image is slightly off. I think it's better to make the initial image good.
