Hue
The attribute of a color that distinguishes it by its wavelength (e.g., red, green, blue), forming the fundamental axis of the color wheel. In digital color models, hue represents the pure color component before saturation and luminance adjustments.
Practical Applications
- julianne-kost demonstrates using the “Color Variance Control” in Adobe Camera Raw’s “Point Color” feature to adjust hue, saturation, and luminance around a selected color (e.g., green from trees in a landscape image).
- Selects target color via eyedropper tool → Adjusts hue/saturation/luminance sliders to refine specific color ranges without affecting adjacent tones.
