1. Choose an image
2. draw an oval shape with the oval tool
3. use the "color dialog" to color the oval black and add blur (5% here), you can safely remove the stroke
4. use the "align dialog" to center the oval, or just drag it with the "select tool"
5. select both the image and oval shape, make sure the oval is on top (use pgup to raise it if need be)
6. voila!
