So i did my first full mash biab

Right i did my first full mash biab i got all my volumes etc thanks to the calculator but is this normal for the beer to look like this after boil.
From what i have heard this will drop oy of the final product but it was a concern.

Looks perfectly normal. That is some of the proteins and break material.
Did you transfer the solids over to your fermenter? It is common practice to try to leave as much of those solids in your kettle as possible. Transfering the break material won't harm anything in the end (some actually think it is useful). The solids will settle out with the yeast at the end of fermentation especially if you cold crash before racking to your bottling bucket or kegs.

Some people are like slinkies. Not good for much, but bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs.
