How to improve this print?

I would like to show you a couple of pictures of my last print. (see bottom of this text)
Please give comments and advice to get an even better print.
I used Elegoo PLA. New, just opened, spool.After searching a lot on Internet + temp-tower, I had this settings in Prusaslicer:
-Extrusion muliplier 96 (as in Cura profile for this PLA?)
- first layer temps: 195 -60
- other layers: 195-55

My own ideas:
- extrusion mulitplier back to 100
- bedtemp to 70 and other layers 65 (so it is a bit more egal and not rough)

Looking forward to your reactions. Regards, Eef

first layer, surface left of text feels rough. around the holes could be more filled

overview last layer

detail last layer. shades around holes

first layer detail, see roughness

first layer detail

We will do what we have always done. We will find hope in the impossible.

Thanks. This was 3 months ago. And I would now not except this result (anymore). 
- 1st layer was not OK. To close to bed
- bed was not clean. Nowadays I wash it with warm water + soap (like the dishes). Also use (leightly) a scouring pad. 
- extruder is mounted more stable 
- tension Y belt little higher. 

We will do what we have always done. We will find hope in the impossible.
