Select the Rectangle tool in the Toolbar or press
U to go straight to it, and make sure the tool
mode in the Options Bar is set to Shape. For the
fill color, I selected the color of the sky in the
image: Click on the Fill swatch in the Options
Bar, then hold down the Option (PC: Alt) key,

edge of the image. If it creates the rectangle
from the center outward, click the gear icon in
the Options Bar and turn off From Center.
