    You are going to have be be more specific than that - Sorry.

    From your description I have no idea what you are referring to! Also I see no lensing in this image.

    at exactly 3 o'clock there is a blue object with a tiny orange center--at exactly 12 o'clock on the edge there is an orange galaxy with 2 blue spots (at it's 12 and 6) thanks

    Thank you, now I can identify the objects you are referring too!

    I would say the object at 3 is more likely a spiral galaxy, very fuzzy - does not have the definition we would expect to see in a lens. At this resolution we may never be able to tell!

    As for object at 12 - the 2 'lenses' have different colors and the one in the 6 position looks quite dispersed. Thinking chance overlap.
