Color style in Match Photo

SketchUp Pro

Hello everyone,
I am trying to use Match photo to put a photo as a background of my model.

I have assigned different colors and materials to the model which are 2 wind turbines and they look fine. However as soon as I import this photo as ‘New Matched Photo’,

the turbines lose their color and get transparent! I played around with the options in the style section but no luck. Any advice?

Did you turn off the Foreground image in the Match Photo options in the Style?

Thanks. That was it. I thought of background not foreground.

Is that photo a panorama? MatchPhoto doesn’t really work with panoramas.

Yes @RTCool Thank you for mentioning it. It has a big field of view but for what I need it can work.
