making an object the same colour as another?

Hi,

I have images of two different canoes, one is grey, the other is orange. I would like to make the orange one the exactly the same colour as the grey one.

How do I do this? First I tried selecting the orange one, then filling it with the colour of the grey one (Edit > Fill >Mode=Colour) - but of course this retains the dark tone of the orange.

Thanks, I hope that makes sense.

Doing this in the past I set the two side by side and use the Color Balance (Alt+I, A, B) to offset the colors. There's also the Brightness and Contrast (Alt+I, A, C) available for alteration.

Should that be too difficult a task, there's always blending them with Alpha channels and blurs.

G'luck.

You could also try using the 'replace color' ('image', 'adjustments').
