Took this photo before I left for work this morning. This is about 12 hours after pitching yeast (wlp029) and I noticed this white stuff in the kreusen, never seen it before though. Think I have an infection?

Looks normal to me. Give it the sniff test when you get home just to verify - after letting the CO2 vent first ofc :D
 
Don't know if there's some optical effects going on there, but the sharp edge in the white film just to the right of center makes me think that might be a pellicle starting to form...
