Residual K﹩\arcmin﹩ images, after subtraction of axisymmetric bulge and disk models from the images shown in Fig. 1. The images are shown on a linear scale which is an order of magnitude smaller than that of Fig. 1. White crosses mark locations of foreground stars on the face of the galaxy. (a) NGC 2403; (b) NGC 3521; (c) NGC 4414; and (d) NGC 5055. Scale bar is shown at lower right. See § 3 for details.
