This galaxy exhibits a clear spiral structure. The arms are tightly wound and somewhat patchy in appearance. There is a substantial central bulge that appears moderately sized. The spiral arms show evidence of star formation, visible as regions of bluer light that contrast with the yellower light of older stellar populations. The galaxy does not appear to be edge-on, nor does it appear to be undergoing a major merger. There may be some evidence of minor disturbances in the disk. The overall morphology suggests a well-formed spiral galaxy with active star formation and a stable structure.
