If you're going to reshoot, you should focus on the wrinkles at the base of the fingers.

Thanks for the comments. I've tried a whole bunch of "hand" shots. This one had a short DOF, and is probably the best of what I have. I did focus in on the wrinkles, with the hand being a tad out of focus. It still, however, is far from what I have in my mind. Again, I will try a few more of these shots.

This is great subject matter. The area of wrinkles around the wrist are sharp & the skin has a nice tonal range. I imagine it would be better with the hand being sharper. Nice one Jim.

I'd love to see this in sharp focus to get all the wrinkles and spots.

A little more contrast will be great here. Still a nice photo.
