The galaxy appears as a single, somewhat diffuse object. The primary body of the galaxy exhibits a centrally concentrated luminosity profile, appearing brightest near the center and gradually fading outwards. There is an area of blue-shifted light in the lower part of the galaxy. It is difficult to ascertain from this image alone if this is from a single source, or a region of high star formation. The color of the galaxy core suggests a population of older stars. The galaxy appears to be interacting or potentially merging with a smaller galaxy based on morphology. This is based on the less dense area surrounding the main galaxy that is more diffuse.
