Default Wallpack Light

You have seen the before pictures on another thread with weight of the previous fixtures with covers pulling away from the box. These are the rest and the after pics if you will.

I am seeking objective criticism. The raceway was existing and UF wire sleeved through it. Lighting control consists of a photoeye without time clock.
