Where can I learn how to edit my digital photographs? This might sound arrogant coming from a noob but the books and tutorials I found were from people who I didn't like the work of. Are there any courses thought by actual masters? Like people who have their work in big galleries and not just get a lot of likes on social media from amateurs?

thats a pretty valid request, but im afraid you wont be able to get anything like that. fine art pros dont go around hosting courses on how to pp their work, they focus 100% on how to build a body of work, editing and narrative skills, unless they are eye candy one trick ponys like benoit paille, but its not the norm.

also most of the time they have nobodies that are good on pp, that do the boring work for them, these dont host pp workshops either.

your best shot would be to get proficient at photoshop and also develop enough sensory acuity to "reverse engineer" the process of a given photo, so know where did they dodged or burned, where they lifted whole sections exposure, or how they shifted or compressed tonality as a whole.

emailing authors with specific questions gives good results most of the time, just dont be autistic or try to rob much of their time.

tl;dr nope, git gud.

Who gives a shit if you like their work?

You're learning technique. How you apply the technique is up to you.

Not all great artists are great teachers.
Not all great teachers are great artists.

Learn from skilled teachers, even those whose work you don't like, with that knowledge you can then analyse and interpret techniques of the people whose work you like most.
