Strange number of merging masses.

The lines that are crossing to the Northeast are strange immediately. The second is that there look to be three lumps of material swirling around one another.

The lines are artifacts. The one from the lower left is a very long diffraction spike, from a bright star that's a looong way off (on the sky). You can see this if you click on Galaxy Zoo examine, then DECaLS SkyViewer, then zoom out.
Happy hunting! 😃

Artifacts aside 😃
Some awesome ansae on either side of the bar, possibly a slight resonance ring?
Either way -- nice!
