  The inverted T with long diffuse tail has several concentrated areas within it. Perhaps two side-on disk galaxies at different distances?

  With these distortions, I'm thinking merger with lovely dustlanes !

  My guess is the galaxies are beginning to merge and the bottom right part of the larger galaxy is starting to wrap around the small one.
