Scientific paper

We present a comparison of the observed WFPC2 and NICMOS morphology of galaxies in a cluster in Lynx at a redshift of z ~ 1.27. Preliminary results indicate that, though the majority of the cluster galaxies have spectral energy distributions resembling those of local elliptical and early-type galaxies, their surface brightness profiles span the full range of bulge fractions. One must be cautious, therefore, to assume that local correlations between morphology and color persist at high redshift.
