Looking again at your message, yes as long as you had tagged all the kingfisher pics at some time then a click on the kingfisher tag would bring up all the kingfisher pics together on your screen from wherever they are on the computer in an instant. I have a ''family'' tag which if clicked will bring up every family shot. Under family I have separate sub catagories for each family member which if I click brings up just the shots with them in. A lot easier than trawling manually through thousands of thumbnails and then individually finding the right file on an ever growing pile of discs. As I said elements does not store the photos themselves but just keeps a data base on where they are on your computer or even external hard drive. You can make or delete as many tags or subtags as you like.
