Lensing of high redshift objects

    Spotted this today, also noticed quite a few apparently old/faint objects in the same image. Thought it'd be worth making a note of?

    Hi SolArcNil and welcome to the Zoo

    As I said in the comments to the left : no lensing in this image.

    And some/most of the fainter but round small objects are foreground stars from our galaxy.

    Happy hunting ! 😄
