Someone good with photo alterations?

[Leopardess]

I have a picture that has a black splotch on it. I don't know what it is, maybe a mess up in processing (it was on film) or a turning fish? Either way, I just decided I want to make a photo calendar for someone and would like to use this picture but my software doesn't have the tools to remove it. Does anyone think it would be an easy fix? If not, I have others I could use.

Here's the picture:

If anyone wants to help, I can email you the full size file.

Thanks =)

All I have is MSPaint, but if this is good enough:

Send me the full size version to Lecter612-at-gmail.com and I'll do the same to that one.

Wow, thank you! That's great. My picture is a little blurry but when it's smaller you can't really tell

I like it too, Black Moor....but the picture doesn't do it justice for me. Stupid disposable underwater camera. It's a blacktipped shark in Bora bora. We were swimming with about 20 of them when that was taken. It was supposed to be just a stingray visit that time, but all the sharks showed up!

Thanks so much - I'll email it to you, Rask
