The galaxy exhibits a clear spiral structure. Well-defined arms extend from a bright central bulge region. There appears to be some dust lane obscuration along the spiral arms, giving them a slightly clumpy appearance. The central bulge exhibits a smooth luminosity profile. The spiral arms appear relatively open. There may be some degree of interaction with a nearby object. The galaxy exhibits a moderate inclination with respect to our line of sight. The blue color in the arms suggest the presence of active star formation.
