  weird #arc. Looks separate from the galaxy but it is the same color and very thick. I don't think this is a lens

  and yet it doesn't seem like an arm, it's arc-like, see how it joins further down? maybe one galaxy is being absorbed?

  compact elliptical/spiral merger- the arm is being stretched from the spiral to the elliptical as a tidal tail.
