Agreed!  The content aware spot healing brush is absolutely amazing!  Just the 
few minutes it saves when fixing ugly problems are well worth upgrading for...

This post is for those of you who do not own Photoshop Elements ("PSE") version 
9 or 10.   One of the features introduced in version 9 was the Spot Healing 
Brush-Content Aware feature.   If you are leaning toward Photoshop Elements, 
this feature alone may convince you.   It is a feature that allows you to 
"touch up" or "touch out" parts of your photos and the only skills required are 
knowing how to click a mouse.   Judy mentioned this feature as being able to 
remove beer bottles, trash, etc. from your photos.   I am attaching two photos 
showing this feature.  They are not bird photos, but rather are of the Abbey of 
St. Mary’s in York, England.   I took them with a point and shoot Canon which I 
carry in my pocket when I am tired of lugging my Nikon D5000 around.   In one 
photo, you can see three people and a sign in the original photo.   With just a 
few clicks of the mouse, the offending portions of the photo are removed.  
Somewhat amazing when you consider that my retouching skills are minimal.   
Those pesky power lines that appear in our photos are no match for the Spot 
Healing Brush.
