gotcha

I was looking at some of your other shots on Flickr (linked in your other post) - you've got some nice images and landscapes - with a bit more definitive compositions and some interesting lines going through the images etc...

this one is just a bit flat I think in comparison - it needs something to draw the eye through the image

I think you are right i need to learn to be more selective now, Feedback helps if something isnt liked as much as liked. Even though this is a bad shot knowing why is better than taking a good shot but not knowing why.

yup - I agree it is good to find a trusted place where people give honest feedback even if it is not one of your best "keepers" - still good to understand whey people like a photo or not and why...

although - once you get out of the realm of whether photos have proper composition, exposure and other technical qualities - it is a whole other can of worms, subject to much personal opinion, about whether an image is "good" or not.
