You can create a rounded rectangle and put it above your image. Select both (image and shape) and go Object > Clipping Mask > Make. This will create a mask and it´s a group.

You can acess Layers panel....open the group hierarchy..move the image and the mask as separated itens.

Once again, the moderator does not give clear instructions and now I have to read down into this thread to decipher the actual instructions. And all because Adobe is too greedy to invest in clear, precise, efficient feedback. Thanks, again, Adobe.
