The galaxy presents as an elongated, disk-like structure, viewed nearly edge-on. The dominant color is a warm yellowish-orange, suggesting a population of older stars. The light distribution appears relatively smooth, with some indication of a central bulge. There is a subtle bluing towards the edges of the disk, possibly indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars associated with ongoing star formation activity in the disk. No distinct spiral arm structure is readily apparent at this resolution, but this is not surprising given the near edge-on orientation. No obvious signs of major tidal disturbances or ongoing merger events are visible. The overall appearance indicates a relatively massive, disk galaxy with moderate star formation.
