Blue red-shifted object

  This is marked as an artificially red-shifted image. Since the color is still blue, does it mean that it was red-shifted by a small amount only? In the SDSS image it appears bluer

  Yes, it was red shifted just a little. Each object is redshift 8 times, each times a bit redder and fuzzier, to see how it affects classification.
