Caption: Figure 1.

CFHT/MegaCam giz color images with HST instrument footprints overlaid. Galaxies are shown in order of decreasing luminosity in the F475W filter (from left to right and top to bottom). Note that the intensity scaling is not absolute across all panels. Each image measures ﹩3\buildrel{\,\prime}\over{.} 75\times 3\buildrel{\,\prime}\over{.} 75﹩ (18 × 18 kpc) and thus covers only a small fraction of the MegaCam 1 deg2 field. ACS/WFC footprints are shown as dashed–dotted lines, NICMOS footprints are show as dashed lines, and WFPC2 footprints are shown as solid lines. In all cases, north is up and east is to the left.
