Color intensity affects the color saturation of the target image.
The default value is 100. If you move the slider to the left the
image is desaturated and it is grayscale at the extreme value of 1.
If the slider is moved to the right the colors in the image are
saturated and they are intensified most to the extreme value of 200.

1. Open Photoshop CS.
2. Open Island Girl.jpg from the samples folder of Photoshop CS
directory.
3. Go to Image > Adjustments > Match Color
4. Please make sure that the Preview option is checked.
5. Make sure that None is selected for the Source menu at the
bottom.
6. Start moving the slider of the color Intensity to the left
to 1.
7. Observe the image carefully.
8. The image becomes grayscale.

11. You can observe the intensified colors of sand, sky and even
water.

We will use two different images to apply color match command. Source image and target image. This command is particularly usefulto make two images consistent in terms of colors. The fade is use to control the degree of adjustments we make to match the colors.
