Adobe® Photoshop® Elements 6 software for Macintosh
$89.99

Because Mac comes pre-loaded with iPhoto, the need for a full and bloated version of Photoshop is not the norm for most users. However, Photoshop Elements 6 contains some great add-ons worth considering, especially if you take a lot of photos. Instead of searching through all of your photos, you can tag them using visual keyword tags. iPhoto can be overwhelming, especially once you have created more than 10 folders.

A feature I like about the Photoshop Elements 6 program is the ability to stack photos you don't need to see. So, for example, if you have 100 photos of a factory tour you saw but only need to see the first photo, you can literally stack all of the related photos underneath. This saves a lot of time rifling though all the photos of the same event.

Of note, there is this really fun feature called Photomerge. You can use this if you have a series of photos, maybe a group shot and in one of the shots someone is blinking or looking off in the distance. With this feature you can merge all the group shots and it will compile the best photo of the bunch, using the best facial expressions or positions of the people in the group.

If you are trying to create a business presentation and need to customize photos, there are features enabling you to add graphical elements, like drop shadows, and change the layouts.

And if your company needs more marketing materials, this program will enable you to create, calendars, photo books, mugs, t-shirts etc.
