+smear[1-3].jpg are blood smear sample images. <br/>
+A standard blood test involves
+counting different kinds of cells by a human looking at smear glass slides
+under a microscope. <br />
+In this problem, use your favourite image processing library/framework and programming language of choice to detect the number of red blood cells present in the image smear3.jpg and segment out white blood cells (blue colored objects), if present.
+<br />
+Output should be a count of red blood cells and cropped out images of WBCs.
+
+<br />
+(Hint: Use circular hough transform for counting, before counting use image enhancement methods to improve image quality)
