    looks nice. May be a merger?

    Hmm, this is too distant a galaxy to say with any certainty.... In a case like this, the kinematics may be helpful ...

    I agree with Ivy ... it's rather too small (angular size) to have much confidence in its (optical) morphology. However, the apparent green (and red?) might hint at an EELR, so maybe it's a merger? Or #green?? It likely has an AGN though. When I get time I'll do some GALFIT model fits ...
