   * Mask: A tool used in image processing software to selectively apply adjustments to specific areas of an image. Masks can be created based on brightness, color, or other criteria, allowing you to isolate and enhance specific parts of the image without affecting the rest. Use in post-processing, and not required to capture images with the Seestar.   * Mask: A tool used in image processing software to selectively apply adjustments to specific areas of an image.
