Can I deselect something in MS Word that had earlier been selected in the program

I have a piece of code where as part of some event handling I am selecting an image in a word document and copying it in a file. But after the event handler is done, the image is shown as selected when I return back to word after the event has been handled. The code snippet is as follows :

foreach (Word.InlineShape shape in shapes)
{
    string filepath = "somepath";
    shape.Select();
    Word.Application application = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application;
    application.Selection.CopyAsPicture();
    Computer comp = new Computer();
    Image image = comp.Clipboard.GetImage();
    image.Save(filepath, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
    comp.Clipboard.Clear();
}

I want that this shape should not be shown as selected because the shape selection was only part of some event handling.

Is there a way to deselect this shape.

Thanx for your suggestions.

You deselect the current selection by using

application.Selection.Collapse()
