For example, I would like to change Santa Claus' red clothes into black, but the colors of other things which are not appearing red are still the same. The Christmas tree in that picture is still green.

Please help me!
Thanks in advance for any help.[/img]

If this does not match the 'red' color add a -fuzz 10% to also concert near-red colors.
