The galaxy exhibits a prominent spiral structure. The spiral arms are tightly wound close to the central bulge. The dust lanes are patchy and visible throughout the spiral arms. There appears to be a strong bar feature dissecting the central bulge. The central bulge appears yellowish in color, with some of the spiral arms appearing more blue. This may be caused by the bar feature obscuring some of the central bulge, or by the spiral arms appearing bluer as a result of new star formation. There are no signs of any major mergers happening, although there appears to be a minor disturbance occurring. The galaxy is being viewed at an angle that is not edge on, but not completely face on, either. The galaxy is largely disk dominated, with a small central bulge. The galaxy is estimated to be a moderate mass spiral galaxy, based on the data and morphology.
