Question Jacking points?

I need to lift up the back of my car and get underneath. I'm using a floor jack and jack stands, not the factory jack. What points should I use to jack it up? The car is low enough that I can't really tell what's part of the rear subframe and what isn't, so any pointers would be appreciated.

Total noob question, I know. I've never had to jack up the back of this car before!

If I need to do backend work, I will jack up the car with a floorjack using the "pumpkin" on the rearend as the lift point. I then place the jack stands under the frame rails.
