Caption: Figure 1.

Left: wide-field image of the Orion A central region obtained with 7DT using the m650 filter. The image was constructed by combining multiple exposures taken on 2024 March 24. The red square marks the region that is enlarged in the right panel. Right: RGB composite image of the inner region of the Orion Nebula using the m850 (red), m650 (green), and m500 (blue) filters. The bright ridge running diagonally from the upper left to the lower right corresponds to the Orion Bar, a photon-dominated interface shaped by strong UV radiation from the nearby Trapezium Cluster. The structure reveals fine filaments, embedded stars, and illuminated gas layers characteristic of this transitional region between the H II region and the molecular cloud.
