Ring? Doubled spiral arms?

  • nyjtm by nyjtm

    This appears to me to have a bar, and possibly a ring. Also, the arms almost look like they are divided. Am I wrong? Could there be dust channels?

    There does seem to be space between the bar and the partly formed ring. I couldn't call the dark areas a real ust trail, though there probably is dust in them. We usually reserve that term for edge-on galaxies.
