There are various ways to go about it, depending on what you are trying to achieve. Here I used a radial gradient on a layer mask as an example.

Make the image a normal layer. (alt+double click)

Add a layer mask to it. Set the colors to white and black. Use the radial gradient, start in the center and extend out to the edge.

Adjust the gradient as necessary.
