Within Elements (and most image editing applications) there is a tool called the 'cloning brush' which allows you to take a take a bit of your image and 'clone' it over another bit. It can be used for lots of nefarious deeds such as removing unwanted elements of an image (perhaps an ex girlfriend or boyfriend...) but it has practical use as well such as removing dust spots. And, you will eventually get dust spots on your camera's sensor. Believe me...
