fingers bending

Maybe I'm a little confused what you are asking. Are you asking how  
the bends of fingers are different in those three handshapes? I are  
that it can be hard to tell the difference because they are SO close.  
I have to work on making sure I knew the difference so that I could  
make it as clear as I could in the photos. Personally, I think that  
the side view is when the difference is clearly visible. The other  
views aren't as clear. I have attached the photos with the side view.  
Does that help make it clear, or am I misunderstanding the question?
