Looks good.

Looking at my hard wood floors, I see that the space between planks is 
not constant, fery far from it: it ranges from none to a bit over 2mm, 
up to 4mm between the ends, and varies along the length of the various 
planks.
There are barely any groove, and they are not very dark. They seems to 
come mostly from ewar and tears and often looks like tiny bits where the 
varnish got worn more.

The frquence looks correct to me. Maybe more range: areas with higher 
frequency and areas with lower.
Just missing some knots...
