Description

This one isn't too peculiar.  Arp noted that the companion to the bright, roughly elliptical galaxy (NGC2832) was "quite compact".  I notice a very bright core with a fainter halo that appears elongated but slightly curving.  Compact NGC2831 is almost perfect round, with a uniform core and a hint of a slightly larger halo.  The very elongated NGC2830 shows a very small core only slightly brighter than the very narrow elongations.  I might notice just a slight curving of the ends of these elongations.

Lots of other galaxies in the field as this is the center of the Abell 779 galaxy cluster.
