Hard to see from the pic. But yeah. Illegal:
Blue and yellow headlights (headlights must be white and DOT approved) - CA Vehicle Code section 24011
Headlights brighter or higher wattage than those from the factory - CA Vehicle Code section 24011

Don't worry man. It's just bad luck you got caught. Like Rod said, it is up to the cop to cite you or not. Just try to contest it and hopefully the Ref/Judge would dismiss your ticket. GL.
