Hello,

This is my first post. I'm fairly new to Photoshop but have had some good success so far. I am using Windows 11, Photoshop 24.

I have a photo of some jugs with fluid in them. The original photo has blue fluid. I need to change the color of the fluid to: magenta, green, purple and orange. I have successfully changed the colors to magenta, green and purple but I can't seem to get it to orange. Any suggestions? See attached photo.

I would use a Hue Saturation Adjustment Layer and choose the Cyan channel to adjust the hue accordingly:

From there you can adjust levels, etc to brighten the image.

Added bonus - you can also use the mask attached to the layer to isolate your adjustments further.

Kevin,

Thank you! In between our messages, what I did was

1. Changed the color space to LAB.

2. Selected a color range.

3. Made a Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layer to get to the desired orange.

4. Made a Brightness / Contract Adjustment layer.

This worked. But, your method obviously worked too. THANK YOU.
