From what I can see, it looks like a healthy kraeusen... Keep the faith..:)
Good Luck.

PS. A bunch of folks believe the myth that one can rack under a contamination and be ok. Not so. The unwanted organism is throughout the wort by the time it shows itself.
 
From what I can see in the photo, it looks like it's just krausen... that's to be expected, it will go away in a few days... RDWHAHB... :tank:
 
That looks a lot like my latest hard cider. That's what my past few brews have looked like.

What yeast did you use?
 
no... the krausen will fall naturally, you should rack depending on your SG or time... for my New England Hard Cider, this is anywhere from 2-4 weeks... basically, when airlock activity has stopped, check your SG, and rack to secondary... then let it sit in secondary for another 2-4 weeks (until clear), then either bottle or rack to bulk aging...
