Caption: Fig. 9.

NICMOS F160W image (left) and the PSF‐subtracted image (right) of SDSS J0246−0825. The pixel scale is approximately 0﹩\farcs﹩075 pixel⁻¹. The central extended object (component G) is clearly seen in both the original and the PSF‐subtracted image. We can see component C forms a nearly perfect ring in the PSF‐subtracted image. This ring feature is likely to be the lensed host galaxy of the source quasar (see Fig. 12). The PSF magnitudes of components A and B are 17.3 and 18.6, respectively, and the aperture magnitude (0﹩\farcs﹩375 radius) of component G is 19.4.
