Changing the colour of things in an image in Photoshop

This tutorial will show you how to change the colour of items in Adobe Photoshop in a few well laid out, easy steps.

First of all, you need to find an image that you want to use.  I'm going to use this one:

(Royalty free image from fotosearch.com)

The duck doesn't really look like it fits into the photo, so open it in Photoshop, and select the duck with the Polygonal lasso tool.

Then, with the duck selected, open the Hue/Saturation box (Ctrl + U).

Move the bars along, until the colour of the duck has been darkened, and de-saturated.

Press OK, and you're done!  The duck now fits into the picture better.
