Drop your Z axis more than it was in the pic, I'd try at least two 0.05mm more steps down, and maybe even more. You want PLA to be pretty squashed. Stick a piece of computer paper in between the nozzle and the bed and lower the nozzle to the point that it takes a fair bit of resistance to pull the piece of paper out. That's the amount of z offset you want with PLA.
As others have said, you need to cool off a bit too, try 60 bed, 195 nozzle. See how it goes, you can always go up a bit or down a bit as it prints too. Try 60/195 though, no fan for the first 3 or 4 layers.
