Three-color continuum-subtracted and reddening-corrected composite (red = [S II]λ6717, green = Hα, blue = [O III]λ5007). The white rectangles mark the regions used to crop the large-scale field, centering on relevant structures, i.e. the pillar-like structure known as the Spire and the bright Herbig-Haro object known as HH 216 just south of the iconic Pillars of creation. In this projection, North is up and East is left.
