    I’m surprised how much red there is. Does that mean those stars are rapidly moving away from us?

      I assume that this picture is almost entirely artistic impression since (afaik) it’s not from the JWST team. I think this would look much like any other space photo if done with true colour but I don’t know for certain.

      *True, this is NGC 4449 as viewed by the HST
