Your hand holding was well done but you're just up against the optical 
limits.  My guess is that this shot was taken from about 2 feet and, at 
f/5.6 you're only going to get a couple inches DOF at best.  A tripod 
and f/8 would have given you another inch or so.  f/11 would add another 
inch or so but by then the diffraction boogeymen might start showing up.
