    Hmm.. its one of the confusing / possible real lens candidates. The left arc looks believable whereas the right blue object appears more like an edge on disk galaxy. This could have been a lensed image of the type "radial arc", if it were several times fainter than the blue arc on the left.

    the one at 2:30 might be interesting and worth another look...its kind of faint which makes life difficult.
