Most basic Photoshop editing capabilities are simply digital versions of darkroom techniques. Dodging, burning, toning, unsharp masks, bleaching, contrast, cropping, coloring, etc... all came from the darkroom, it's just far less involved, so to say it's no longer photography just shows how little your friend really knows about it.
