 Here is an especially photogenic group of interacting galaxies. The larger of the spiral galaxies has a dark disk that is tightly distorted into a rose-like shape by the gravitational tidal pull of the companion galaxy below it. A series of uncommon spiral patterns in the large galaxy is a tell-tale sign of interaction. The larger outer arm appears partially as a ring, a feature seen when interacting galaxies actually pass through one another. This suggests that the smaller companion actually dived deep but off-center from the large galaxy.
