The galaxy presents as a somewhat irregular, diffuse object with a disturbed morphology. There is no clear central bulge or well-defined spiral arm structure discernable. The light is dominated by blue wavelengths, suggesting a population of relatively young, hot stars. The overall shape is elongated and somewhat amorphous, appearing possibly in the throes of a merger or exhibiting tidal features, possibly indicative of gravitational interactions with another galaxy, although no obvious companion galaxy is visible in this image. There appear to be some regions of relatively increased density within the diffuse structure of the galaxy, suggestive of ongoing or recent star formation. Dust lanes are not obvious but given the resolution it's hard to state definitively. The galaxy is relatively faint, indicating a lower stellar mass and star formation rate.
