Image of reflection nebula at M﹩\arcmin﹩ (4.67 μm) (displayed on a square root scale). Note the positions of GPFW 1a and GPFW 2. White contours represent the HW ionized hydrogen sources. The IRS 6 sources are those identified by Lenzen, Hodapp, & Solf (1984). IRS 6c has no counterpart in our images; however, Lenzen et al. (1984) may have detected GPFW 1a, which has the same magnitude as IRS 6c.
