Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020 is a comprehensive consumer photo editing application packed with many automated processes and one-click tools. Photoshop Elements has a vast feature set that can highly enhance and even transform your photos.

It also has creative features such as watercolor and sketch effects. In addition to this there are special tools for creating calendars, greeting cards, photo collages, and slideshows with your photos.
Photoshop Elements has three work-spaces: Quick Edit, Guided Edit, and Expert Edit. Each space has its own tab on top and you can toggle between them seamlessly. You can work on a project in one space or in all three spaces at the same time. Between the three tabs, you can choose whether you want to edit a project quickly or delve deep into it. Quick Edit automatically creates different types of enhancements for you based on your input. Guided Edit provides interactive step-by-step directions for achieving various goals, such as applying certain elaborate effects. Additionally, Expert Edit has a more manual, advanced workflow.
