Hi
Extremely new to Photoshop and processing techniques in general.
I took this pic today after my lads football team won their last game of the season to win the league.
I want to use the picture but as you can see their is a mark on the image which I think was a drop of rain on the lens.
Can anybody help with any step by steps on how to remove it (if of course its possible) ?

Thankyou in advance.

The easiest and quickest way I think is to use the burn tool on shadows and at 50% and burn the tree all the same like this.

It would be a bit of a nightmare job to try to clone that out and still preserve the netting. This a pretty quick job just copying bits of net from elsewhere in the shot and cutting and pasting them in.

Thankyou for the replies.

Ajophotog, is there any chance that you could elaborate a little on the technique for burning the trees as you did ?

A simple select this highlight that would help me a great deal to attempt it on the original.

If not then I will attempt it using CT's suggestion but im guessing this will be slightly more tricky for a complete novice such as myself.
