I think the eliptoid marks are the actual galaxies, look different to the usual round objects - bit like comets do you see them now?

I'm with Famdirkes on this - would be helpful to get a steer.

Most look like ovals Ø, fat in the center, becoming thinner on edges. Note top pic, green streak about inch from center, on bottom margin.

I can see the objects in question. Their proportion is definitely consistent with that of a galaxy.

Someone needs to create an authoritative narrative response to many issues raised on this page. Then post here a link to that response.
