ring galaxy?

• by silkwire

  Is this a dominant bulge that has cleared a ring in its disc or is this stellar foreground object?

  Hi silkwire and welcome to the Zoo !

  This is probably a two armed spiral (with very faint spiral arms), where the spiral arms fold back to make a ring. And that is definitely a dominant bulge ! 😄
