Lensing event

    assuming this is a galaxy, it has a ring structure and an active centre. Is there a lensing event shown as an einstein cross?

    Hi waldo3

    Sorry no lensing going on in this image. All the objects you see are stars from our galaxy. The weird ring as well as the colors are optical artifacts.

    Happy hunting !
