Bar with double core?

by mattwski
main core is distinct with a second smaller core to the 2 o'clock position. wispy tails on the edges of the main bar? New to this, would love to know other opinions

Could be a foreground star.

This looks to be a near-edge on barred spiral. The bar edges are arms. The small object near the core could be foreground or background. Remember, galaxies are not all totally opaque.

Very true on the fore/background idea, but the odd shape of the core, almost pulling towards the secondary object has me wondering
