Metal flakes in oil

I just changed my oil last week and put about 200 miles in the car since. Today, decided to drop the filter and just inspect the oil for any abnormalities. When I changed the oil last week, there were a few plastic and metal flakes, not pieces, in the filter. But after dropping the filter again there seems to be ALOT more metal in the bottom of the drain container- looked like the milky way.

Here's a pic, hard to get a good angle but you can see that when I tilt the pan the metal glimmers in the sun...thoughts?
