The galaxy exhibits a distinct spiral morphology, with tightly wound arms emanating from a central bulge. The spiral arms appear somewhat flocculent, displaying numerous star-forming regions characterized by a blue hue, indicating the presence of young, hot stars. The bulge presents a yellowish-white color, suggestive of an older stellar population. The galaxy displays a relatively high degree of rotational symmetry, with a slight elongation along an axis. There's a suggestion of a possible third arm that is less distinct, possibly due to dust lane obscuration or lower star formation density. The overall light distribution suggests a relatively smooth transition between the bulge and the disk.
