The galaxy presents as a flattened, elongated structure, indicating a likely disk morphology viewed at a high inclination. The central region is brighter and more condensed, possibly representing a bulge. A faint, diffuse halo appears to surround the brighter central components. Color gradients are noticeable, with the central region appearing relatively whiter or slightly blue-shifted, transitioning to yellower hues towards the outer edges of the disk. Some subtle, patchy regions of bluer light suggest regions of ongoing star formation, while the yellower regions likely consist of older stellar populations. There is an asymmetry in the distribution of light, potentially indicative of tidal interactions or internal disturbances. The overall shape leans more towards a cigar shape as opposed to perfectly round. Based on visual features alone, a classification of late-type spiral or an irregular galaxy cannot be ruled out, but further spectroscopic analysis would provide more definite insights.
