Is this mold?

I know it’s not the best picture, but can anyone tell me if the circle-ish shapes that have formed on the top are mold? You may have to zoom in a bit to see the ones I’m referring to

If it’s fermented its surface yeast, if it’s pressed juice it may be mold but doesn’t look Too concerning

Is this fresh sweet cider? Do you use PBW?
