Caption: Figure 10.

WFC3 image of 0508−220 after subtracting elliptical flux contours to eliminate the host galaxy light. No attempt was made to model the quasar core. A bright star to the southwest biases the contour fits, causing oversubtraction of the galaxy in part of the jet region. The radio contours start at 5 mJy beam−1 and increase by a factor of 21/2 per contour.
