Nice tutorial, but I got hung up on the step that says to hold down the Alt key to represent an ellipse which will delete the unnecessary part.
When I hold down the Alt key and select the ellipse tool, it becomes the eye dropper or the ellipse just draws an ellipse over the background + image.
Thanks!

A bit frustrating for my first tutorial as it’s not well explained. No sizes indicated . Yes the alt key activates the eyedropper tool instead so I can’t do the last part either.
