red swirl

I found this a while ago and didn't know what to do with it. Perhaps someone can tell us what it is.

Also looks to be a dark nebula.

this is an interesting one. the spiral has a very massive star at its centre but not sure where the spiral comes from - perhaps an LBV...?

Is the color created by ionized gas?

Funny. looks like a mix of a black hole(unseeable) and a wormhole( not proven existance).But it could be made of ionized gas.
