Hi, this is my first post, go gently please.....

Welcome to the site.

Not bad but it seems out of focus.

I think it would make a pretty good image if you cropped about 20% off the top of the frame.

Thanks for the advice MB1 ill try harder next time, i think im losing quite a bit in the reduction process ????

Welcome to another Sony user! 230mm? What lens are you using?

You know, MB1 told me the very same thing on the first image I posted here (and, of course, he was right). That is what started my journey to (I think) a much better photographer.

Woodpeckers are fun to shoot -- like many things, once you find one, you start finding many. I think the biggest problem here is that your camera focused on the tree, not the bird, cause it to be a little out of focus. Not a bad first post. Please share more.

Thanks for the comments peeps, i think the problem was not in the reduction prosess, it was all my fault, incorrect setting etc, i will try harder....
