Some star photos I took this past summer that I hadn't shared yet.

1. A 20 minute exposure with the camera pointed at the north star.

As well as what others have said it could also be that your aperture was too large and therefore your DOF was too shallow. It looks that way to me as parts of his head are in focus and other parts aren't.
That 50mm f1.8 is great for shallow DOFs but for portraits you need to use at least f4.

I think it is a combination of all these things, but having just used the Depth Of Field calculator my DOF on the shot was about 24mm, so after taking focus (using the back button) then recomposing slightly she will obviously have moved a little bit.

Troy, that Hummingbird is so sharp. Do you just pre focus then take a load of shots in burst and hope to get one?

Love barn number 3.

Yeah 24mm is way too shallow for a dog.
Crank the aperture up a bit, make sure you have a decent shutter speed and that way even if she does move it won't matter.
