With all the talk of what is a photo, what manipulation is "acceptable", and the role photoshop plays in all of this, I think a really interesting artist to look at is Jerry Uelsmann. His work is some of my favorite.   It's amazing that he did all of these in the darkroom, often working on up to 9 enlargers at the same time. Check out his website https://www.uelsmann.com And a question for the photo purists, if you make a panorama, is that then not a photo? Or how about bracketing the same scene and then combining for an increased dynamic range? Cloning or healing? What if it's just a dust spot? Or what about images that were taken without a camera at all? Stuff like Walter Chappells work with plants?  Or a more recent take on the idea, Robert Buelteman's work:  Click here for the full 650x516 image.  I'm not saying I disagree with you, but it's tough to draw a line between photos and collage work, and if you do, it's gotta be a pretty fuzzy line.
