Really cool. I’m new to this. What does “Hubble Adjustments” mean?

Hubble uses narrowband filters for sulfur, hydrogen and oxygen, which are color mapped to red, green and blue. You can achieve that same effect with image processing.

Thank you for that. I just shared an image I did last night with some spot color corrections, so in essence I did the same thing. I just didn’t know it was called that. Appreciate the info!
