Yeah, that doesn't look good at all. Espresso isn't supposed to look blonde like that. Coil1969 is giving some good advice. And actually, there's a hard-to-see line inside the chamber that you fill the water up to. You're not supposed to fill to the top rim.
Almost forgot. Take off the plastic bottom cover with spouts. Extract without it. Very very important for temperature control. It is called a "naked" shot. Cheers.

1. One must use a decent tamper with 30 lbs of pressure.
2. Preheat everything prior to brewing.
3. Grind must be adjusted for 25 seconds extraction.
4. Double shout should have ~ 14 grams of coffee per 2 fluid oz of water as marked.
Only then one will get really good shot.
Your extraction was a way too quick which I am sure resulted in watery shot.
Just my five cents.
