The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous object with a somewhat smooth, diffuse morphology. Its shape is elongated, appearing cigar-shaped rather than circular.  There are no obvious spiral arm structures or a prominent central bulge visible.  The light distribution suggests an even blend of stars or a nearly featureless disk. There is a suggestion of disturbance in the symmetry of the galaxy, but no obvious indication of interaction or tidal features suggesting an ongoing merger event.  The color appears to be consistent across the galaxy, indicating a relatively homogeneous stellar population.
