Welcome to FM Landscape.

You have a very nice composition here. Two things that stand out to me. 1st, the sky along the horizon is blown out, when shooting Landscapes keeping an eye for blown highlights is key. You can recover data from too dark of shadows, but when data is blown out... it's gone... Also watch it when processing, as it can be easy to blow the highlights even more while adjusting levels and contrast. The 2nd thing is the shot is a bit lacking in the midtones, so you lose a bit of the feeling of depth to the shot.

I hope that helps, and keep on shooting!

Jim

+1, Jim's comments are bang on.

Might I add that if you're looking for feedback it would be useful to provide the EXIF data (either leave it embedded in the image or just mention the relevant info), and you should indicate what you did or were trying to do. In other words, did you post-process the image and were you trying for the "antique film" look Sunny mentions?
Keep posting!
Chris
