This one [-7] is visible-light and doesn't look too different, though. The infrared one [2.4] looks very cool, too.

The first image [-7] is basically the same as the classic WFPC2 image jzl was referring to -- i.e., using the same mapping of emission-line filters to R, G, and B -- just using a newer camera.
