Histograms of pixel-wise bolometric luminosity surface density ﹩{{\rm{\Sigma }}}_{{L}_{\mathrm{bol}}}﹩ from the center (yellow), diffuse component (red), and H II regions (blue) for each of our targets. The median ﹩{{\rm{\Sigma }}}_{{L}_{\mathrm{bol}}}﹩ for H II regions (vertical blue line) remains roughly consistent between targets. The vertical dashed line shows the estimated Eddington luminosity surface density in star-forming regions, scaled from ﹩{{ \mathcal F }}_{{L}_{\mathrm{bol}}}﹩ to ﹩{{\rm{\Sigma }}}_{{L}_{\mathrm{bol}}}﹩ units for direct comparison.
