1. First off, we start with a new canvas, and I'm going to use the sizes 640*480. And press D and then X. After that get your elliptical marquee tool (m) and make circle and then fill it with black.
2. Now stay with the selection of the circle and with your tool and click on the 'Subtract from selection' tool.
