This is the most exciting #lens I've seen in a very long time

Nice blue areas, I wish I could see it better

@budgieye - to my eye this is magnificent. The two yellow galaxies are enclosed in parentheses of blue #arc, along the longitudinal axis

The red on the left side of the galaxies is misalignment of when the images were stacked. Every white galaxy on this image has some.

A #merger there is bright fuzz around both. Blue galaxies may be a chance alignment.

Not sure this is a lens at all. there is a feint blue smudge on the right end but when hi lighted in blue it disappears. I can't see an arc.
