    I would use a program I use to edit . It's called "Photoscape" ( FREE DL ) . 1) Take pic with cell phone . 2) Open with program the crop in circular pattern, adjust size and lighting if need be , save to file.

    Lunapic is also good, also free, and no download necessary. You can edit online with it, then save the pic.

    It takes a little while to learn to use Lunapic, but I've grown to really like it.

    It's worth fiddling around with to learn a bit. Quite useful.

    What you are seeing is a well placed die chip. It is a common occurrence more so on the S, but can be found also on D and P mm.
