The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure, oriented approximately diagonally in the frame. It exhibits a smooth luminosity profile, with a central concentration of light that gradually fades towards the edges. The color distribution is not uniform; a subtle yellowish-red hue is observed in the core region, potentially indicative of an older stellar population. The outer regions appear bluer, which could suggest the presence of younger stars or ongoing star formation, although this feature is not prominently defined. There is no obvious spiral arm structure or distinct dust lanes visible. The overall morphology suggests a galaxy undergoing a relatively quiescent evolutionary phase. There are no indications of major mergers or significant tidal disturbances in this image, but a minor interaction or past event cannot be ruled out.
