CCD image in the R band obtained at the Keck-II telescope
on UT 1999 Dec 29.41.
The field shown is approximately 19.6 arcsec square, and the image is
tilted w.r.t. the standard orientation by about 7.2 degrees.
Galaxy A (R ~ 24.5 mag) is the probable host galaxy of
the burst.
A larger field, 78.3 arcsec square. The OT and the galaxies are circled.
