Interesting galaxy with a depressing bunch of datasets, all of which were full of cosmic rays. I've used three different observations from three different proposals and two different instruments. The detectors were not aligned just right between them all so in some places for the red and blue channels I used the channel mixer to fill in blank areas with data from the green channel to create a continuous-looking image. The edges are quite obvious when the channels are viewed individually.
This is one of those times where I thought I might be crazy. Obviously this is a thin disk and again obviously there is some dust situated at a perpendicular angle to the galactic disk, but there's something else, too. The squareish bulge of the nucleus is interesting. Oh, some dust is in the upper right corner, too. Hmm. Straining even harder, I notice the faintest perceptible spiral structure within the bright section of that edge-on disk. I imagine it is probably something like VCC 654, which is another lenticular galaxy.
Can't see what I'm talking about? I don't blame you. I created an ugly version with the crap sharpened out of it to make it more obvious. Ignore the dust and that blue rectangle and focus on that bright, spindle-shaped white part of the disk. Arms? Arms! It's typical for lenticular galaxies to have these interesting, symmetrical, almost geometric shapes but I didn't expect to see any hint of those shapes from an edge view like this.
Curious about this galaxy I did a search and landed on one of Bill Keel's musings on the matter. Towards the bottom he talks about NGC 4111's dust but the whole thing provides interesting insight into the general formation and morphology of lenticular galaxies.

Tel Aviv Dolphinarium, site of The Dolphinarium discotheque massacre, a Hamas terrorism attack on 1 June 2001 in which an Islamic terrorist blew himself up outside of a nightclub in Tel Aviv, Israel, killing 21 Israeli teenagers and 4 adults. The majority of the victims were teenage girls, whose families had made aliyah to Tel Aviv from the former Soviet Union. see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolphinarium_discotheque_massacre

基隆中元祭‧放水燈
基隆中元祭可謂台灣各區的中元普渡中，規模最盛大的祭儀。這個民俗節日除了呈現敬鬼神及體恤遊魂的悲憫心思外，亦有族群融合的寓意隱含其中。清治時期，基隆地區以族群劃分勢力的漳、泉移民因土地、水源爭執，經常發生械鬥事件，尤其1815年(咸豐元年)雙方移在魴頂發生大規模械鬥而死傷慘重，後來集中埋葬遺骸並建老大公墓以撫慰亡靈。
為避免不同族群的械鬥，同心協力建設基隆，地方人士議定於農曆七月十五日舉行中元普度，由三籍移民共同超渡因械鬥、瘟疫、海難、番害等事件而死的亡靈。當時由十一個姓氏（張廖簡、吳、劉唐杜、陳胡姚、謝、林、江、鄭、何藍韓、賴、許）輪流主辦普度。輪值的姓氏稱為「主普」，其他參與的姓氏則稱為「讚普」。除公普之外，基隆地區的各行各業也分別在「城隍廟」、「奠濟宮」、「慶安宮」輪流主辦普渡祭典。而各行各業亦同時舉行普渡，故基隆中元節之活動，展現出極為慎重而盛大的規模。
普渡時通常以寺廟、社區為中心，擺設長長的供桌，家家門前、簷下都掛盞圓形紙燈，一面寫「陰光普照」或「慶讚中元」，一面為「路燈」，用來照引路途，使孤魂野鬼能找到可以供養他們的地方。
放水燈為基隆(雞籠)等港口發展出來特殊的儀式；臨近海邊經常會有因戲水溺斃或船員遭遇海難的不幸情形，為了普渡水中的孤魂野鬼，以水燈照亮水路，讓好兄弟們也能上岸來享用祭品，因為場面盛大熱鬧，也成為中元節極受關注的民俗活動。
佛教的盂蘭法會(盂蘭盆會)雖和道教的中元普渡同於七月半舉行，但佛教供養僧眾、為父母修福的孝道寓意，演變出有施放蓮花燈的祈福活動；而道教發展出來的中元普渡民俗，則是祭祀地官、超渡亡靈的用意。兩者雖然不同，卻同有著於七月悲憫眾生、期許祥和平安的用心。
