Default Infection? See pics.

Hard to see past the krausen residue, but it almost looks like someone spit in my carboy. White circular dots on top about the size of a mini-marshmallow only flat. Normal? Wort smells fine.

Looks like there is nothing to worry about. It's just yeast and CO2 bubbles. RDWHAHB.
