Same here. Perhaps increase the depth field next time. It may enhance the texture.

Thanks Eric, John and Mike. Re: DOF -- It was all in focus on the original. In PP, I added an OOF vignette to slightly blur out the edges, with the goal of removing background distraction, i.e, texture. Maybe I misjudged that "distraction"? BTW, the center focus in the final image was retained from the original and reflects the focal depth over the entire frame. I'll have to think about this, and may reprocess without the OOF edges. Thanks for your comment.
