Single focus point was the mermaid's face

Single focus point was my dog's left eye. She wasn't moving.

User error. 1/3 and 1/8 is too slow for a non stabilized shot at that focal length. The mermaid shot is also at f/22 which causes a lot of diffraction softening. The battery issue i cant speak on but in these shots there is nothing wrong with the gear.

Duly noted.  I was using a tripod for the dog photo, but I did not use a cable release.  Good to know about f22 being soft.  This is new information for me.

A photography couse I took said to use f22 if the desire is to have more of the subject in focus, which is what I was going for.  I'm always willing to learn.  Thanks for the feedback!
