Faint 'interacting' galaxies?

V Faint but possible interacting galaxies? 2 separate objects or merger of 2? Would welcome others assistance with this - thanks!

It is really difficult to tell, even when looking at the optical image (rotated / flipped) :
There are signs of interaction, but unfortunately we only have spectra on one of the galaxies.
So I will stick my neck out and say merger.
Happy Hunting!

Thanks Capella - v interesting - your example (different image it seems) seems a more obvious merging than mine? Too few pixels in my image to make total sense but fascinating possibility all the same.
