    Hi @colcol 😃

    We have a central galaxy that could either be classified as being smooth or having features. A foreground star to the top of the galaxy.

    The smudge at the bottom is another galaxy - difficult to tell if it is a satellite to the central galaxy or totally separate.

    Here is the zoomed out image from SkyServer. The colour are different as it from a different survey.

    Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions 😃
