  Disturbed spiral and the other bright objects could be part of a merger or overlapping stars or galaxies

  Unusual shape, two foci, or more if the orange blob isn't an artifact of the picture.

  The orange blob and the white ones are foreground stars from our galaxy

  discount the #foregroundstar and we're left with a fascinating #merger or #disturbed object ... maybe a #ring and #tidaltail

  I think it actually has a bar (middle, pale yellow), & was trying to be a spiral, with 2 pale (blue, yellow) hot spots (candles). A merger?
