Photo Shop (CS) and Elements are just like two apples - just Photoshop is bigger - more to it -some times it is too much - more than you need. Elements is like the small apple all you realy need for now-

I have the Elements 10 and find it more than adequate. The CS5 --I find has more features than I need
There is certainly a big difference in price
Elements 10 here in Canada is around the $85 price and the new CS6 is in the $650 - $700 range
why not try the Elements and see if it does what you need before spending the big bucks for something that you may not need
