Hi Sana,
It sounds like you just need to learn a little more about using Chimera.  You would display the atoms you are interested in and hide the other atoms, zoom in on the active site region, and set colors and display styles.

Here is a general beginner tutorial:

See also the tutorials in the User's Guide, especially the "image tutorials":

I hope this helps,
Elaine
