I agree, it looks good.
Ive also seen the yellow stuff in my few attemps of blue.
You will be suprised how pungent it will taste once opened and left for 2-3 weeks exposed to air.
Mine tasted more astringent then a massivly tannic wine. I left it for next inoculation since its far too astringent to enjoy.

That's one good-looking cheese! Only 5 weeks old?

I like the rind, veining, paste...all of it!

Nice pics too, but could you stand off to the side next time so the cheese isn't in your shadow? A cheese like that needs to have the limelight so we can all drool.  :)

Let's ferment something!
Bread, beer, wine, cheese...it's all good.

Fantastical

I think you should try ripening boxes to maintain high humidity.  whast your ripening temp?

Overall they look great, I got that yellow looking stuff in my stiltons too. 
You can try a different type of PR for sharper flavor.
