Right click on the slide -> Format Background -> Fill -> Picture or Texture Fill -> Insert from File -> Go to the folder and choose your picture

Step – 1 Make a Picture as your slide background

Insert -> Picture -> Choose the picture from the folder where it is saved

Step – 4 Insert a circle to fit the lens

Step – 5 Insert background image onto the circle

Right click on Blue circle (our lens) -> Format Shape -> Fill -> Slide Background Fill. The lens will be filled by the image we had used for the background.

Step – 6 Group the Picture with the Lens
