A nice Einstein ring with this one, presumably formed by a single galaxy present nearly centered behind the lensing foreground mass. A nice variety of galaxies presents as a colorful image.

Summary

Description
English: A nice Einstein ring with this one, presumably formed by a single galaxy present nearly centered behind the lensing foreground mass. A nice variety of galaxies presents as a colorful image. The upper right ring arc has a couple of overlapping galaxies with darkish rims, which I suppose is dust that would otherwise remain invisible had the background galaxy not arced behind them. Or is it just more gravitational lensing? Hard to say.
