White not blue...

    Okay so I'm not really sure if this is anything out of the ordinary, but the central bulge seems extremely bright and almost white when I thought they tended to be a blue or orangey colour... what do you think?

    Some bright bulges can look white, but the really bright bulges look red in these infrared images.
