There's a few ways.
You could do it with the shape tool and a vector mask or you could do it with the marquee tool.
Vector mask way:
Using the 'rounded rectangle tool' create a rounded rectangle the desired shape around the image.
As long as it's not on a background layer you can then go to Layers>Vector Mask>Current Path. And it will give you a layer mask which can be edited if it's not quite what you were after.
Marquee technique:
Use the square maquee tool to select the area you want then use Select>Modify>Smooth or Refine Edge to get the rounded corners you want.
Then select>inverse and delete the surrounding area or fill it with a border colour.

If you want a blended rounded corner try,
Use the square maquee tool to select the area. Select>Feather the copy and paste that layer onto a plain colour layer.
