Elements really has come of age recently and the release of Elements 9 with all its improvements and new features makes it a consideration of both amateur and professional photographers. In this video Gavin Hoey shows us one feature of Elements that makes editing images that much easier, the Smart Brush.

Thanks for this tutorial. You’ve really touched on some of the cool things that you can do with the Smart Brush.
I am continually impressed with the new features that are added with each version of Photoshop Elements.
Thanks again-

Thanks Gavin for sharing, very helpfull.
I have been enjoying and learning so much from your videos for some time now. I did experiment some with the smart brush but felt like it was cheating and went ahead and figured how to do most of that from scratch. Thanks for letting me feel like it’s ok, and giving me something new (again!) to play with on elements9 today.
really Impressed
