I'm not particularly worried about this, but just thought it was interesting.

Half my krausen is one color while the other half is another.

I found another example of this here too: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/half-moon-krausen.419398/

The light half in my case is towards the door within my fermentation chamber (an old upright freezer), while the dark half is probably closer to the cold source within the chamber.

Pretty strange hey?

Probably due to thermal movement of the beer within the fermenter between different internal temperature zones.
Many brewers have used a small computer or similar fan within the freezer to even out the temperature range.
