This image of the star, which is called 2MASS J17554042 6551277, uses a red filter to optimize visual contrast. While the purpose of this image was to focus on the bright star at the center for alignment evaluation, Webb’s optics and NIRCam are so sensitive that the galaxies and stars seen in the background show up.
