Sigma 50-500mm F4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM
Shot at 420 mm
Exposure: Manual exposure, 1/2,000 sec, f/13, ISO 720
Flash: Off, Did not fire
Focus: AF-C, at 2.5m, with a depth of field of about 2.3cm, centered on the focus point
AF Area Mode: Single Area
It's the aperture selected but it's also how the lens/camera is set to auto focus: The focus info is the key here: You were "spot focused" with a narrow DOF; the lens focused in the "single area" of the image area. Select a different AF for number of focus points.
So, it was the combination of the focal length, the aperture AND the AF option selected.

With the focal distance being 2.5m (approx 98") this appears to be very close to the minimal focal distance of this lens. Could this cause the bottom portion of this photo to out-of-focus ?.
