I'll imbed the image for you. Grab the white bit in the middle and pull down. It should pop off for you.

I think you just grab the central bit and pull straight down.

It's not a bulb...it's a tube:) just pull it straight down as the others have said. Just made sure the base is well secured to the ceiling so it doesn't come with it.
