Ive googled the living daylights out of this and can't come up with a solution and I can't figure it out myself. Sadly I am not hugely savvy with PS or ID

I have a photo which I want to blend in to a dark background. But I want the colour of the photo to match the colour of the dark background so it kind of blends in.

An example of what I want to acheive is in the link http://www1.snapon.com/toolsatheight its the brochure thingy on the right.

Any help would be greatly received.

So essentially colourise the photo?

Is PS/PSE - Add a hue/saturation layer, make it grey/dark grey, click the "colourize" button and play with the slider.

To specifically match the background coluor - use the pippette tool to select the colour you're colorize-ing it to.

Or... even easier - just create a solid colour layer of the colour you want to blend to and select the "Color" mode of blending...

In reply to cap'nChino: thanks for that. Will give it a go.

Put the solid colour behind the image you want to blend then desaturate the top image and turn it's blend mode to multiply. I find this works well.
