Is there any way in Photoshop to remove a background color from an image, when some of the background is behind a transparent object.

So far, I've tried using masks and channels but have not made any progress. I want to make the background transparent, so that the bottle and 'ink' can be put onto a white background colour.

Many thanks in advance, any help would be much appreciated.

Just finished making a video on this topic which also shows how to get rid of the color cast afterwards --


There is a way to set a color as transparent.. blend-if.


Convert to Lab
Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options
Blend if: B
Adjust the This Layer slider to get rid of yellows. Hold alt on a half of a handle to separate it and create a border radius for smooth transition.




The Curves 1 layer is then to get rid of the remaining color cast. I didn't know what color its supposed to be since I've got no reference point so I just went into the B channel and pulled the curve down slightly.

There's no automated way to set a color as transparent.

However, try Select > Color Range and choose "Yellows" from the drop down menu. Then create a layer mask based on that selection. You get some decent results.

It's not perfect. But it's then a matter of adjusting levels on the mask a bit and correcting for the color halos, just general refining.

Mask created after color range selection.... (no refinement)
