Description

Color chosen by taking the pixel color value on the lines in Figure 1. NIRCam + JWST Optical Telescope Element (OTE) filter throughputs from https://jwst-docs.stsci.edu/jwst-near-infrared-camera/nircam-instrumentation/nircam-filters
f090w         PWL=902nm, BW=194nm, colored with (126,6,144)
f187n(Pa-alpha)  PWL=1874nm, BW=24nm, colored with (6,153,213)
f200w         PWL=1989nm, BW=457nm, colored with (6,162,191)
f335m(PAH, CH4)PWL=3362nm, BW=352nm, colored with (133,255,6)
f444w         PWL=4408nm, BW=1029nm, colored with (243,32,31)
f444w_f470n(H2)PWL=4708nm, BW=51nm, colored with (207,6,6)

The raw color combining all 6 filters will be all green, unlike the official processing with blue background, so I stretched the blue channel more and used some curves transformation in Pixinsight
