5″ × 5″ postage stamp images of Q1549-C25. From left to right, we show ground-based V band, U336, V606, J125, and H160, oriented with north up and east to the left. The LRIS slit is overlaid on each postage stamp. These images indicate that C25 consists of a single component within a 1″ radius. The faint galaxy 1.″3 to the south does not contribute to the flux measured in the LRIS spectrum. The lack of U336 detection for Q1549-C25 is consistent with the spectroscopic detection of f900, given the depth of the U336 imaging.
