  Welcome to Space Warps ! 😄
  The object top left looks like a star to me. So no lens, sorry

  a tip - try checking such images in the Quick Dashboard with different contrast settings, zoom+pan. this will give you a better feel for how lensed images might be different from these bluish-white stars
