I see people who show photographs of lenses, with circles drawn around scratches or whatever, and comments added.
Can anyone tell me exactly how I do that using Photoshop CS4 please?
Thanks

Hi Dave, tis simple when you know how - bit like most of p/shop I guess... Open Image file 1st. Pick a colour (left click the top left of the overlapping foreground/background usually b/w) squares 2nd icon up from the bottom of the toolbar that has lasso/text/crop etc icons on it (assuming thats visible). Click the paintbrush tool (8th icon down in single column mode or right and 4 down in 2 column mode toolbar). Then change size of paintbrush from the now visible 2nd line down from top brush parameters (down arrow change size to say 5 pixels hard edge brush/ mode normal / opacity 100%/ flow 100%) then draw circle wherever cursor is holding left mouse button down !!! et voila. Ok that PSCS4 and thats the way I'd do it - 100+ other ways I guess - regards Tim
