I really like this modern looking vanity light.  It was a little larger than I envisioned and I had to mount it pretty close to the ceiling above my medicine cabinet.  Because of this, I had no choice but to mount it with the bulbs facing downward, otherwise I wouldn't be able to reach in and remove the bulbs to change them.  I was a little disappointed that I couldn't mount it facing upward as shown, but it actually doesn't matter and it looks great.
