I want to fill the dent on the deck as shown in the picture (http://

fill the dent called? Is it plaster (a guess)?

All I see in the picture is a closeup of a painted surface, with a
couple hairs. *Dents in wood are usually steamed, not filled, but for
a deck isn't this a little anal?

Sorry about the lack of detail. As a take a picture further away, I
think you may have been right about being too anal about filling the
dent on the deck surface. Here is another picture of the deck when I
took the picture further away (http://imagebin.ca/view/I3u7pR.html).
