The object appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a shallow angle, close to edge-on. It has a bright, somewhat elongated central bulge. The spiral arms are loosely wound and extend outwards from the central bulge. There seems to be an apparent bar running through the center. Patches of blue color indicate possible regions of active star formation. Overall, the galaxy displays a fairly organized spiral structure, however there may be a minor disturbance in the form of the asymmetry of the spiral arms.
