This looks like a typical day in Eastern Australia!
A nice image but possibly a little generic.
What I mean by this is that there is nothing, particularly in the foreground, that helps capture the essence of the place.
Down in the bottom right of the image is some coloured foliage that, were it a bit closer in the scene, might help in this regard.
Some will comment about the bland sky, but, as you mention - no clouds - so not a lot can be done about that.
You have minimised the sky, which is a good ploy, but, depending on your composition, even eliminating it completely may have been an option too.
This area seems to have plenty of scope for good compositions and if you are able, try marking certain spots as places where there are excellent compositions and then returning in different light and different weather conditions.
Ultimately it is the light that transforms a so-so image in to something truly special.
BTW there is nothing intrinsically wrong with the light in that image - it seems to have been shot in the late afternoon - and so the low angle, slightly warm light can be ideal for good landscapes.
Doing good landscape photography is an exercise in time and patience.
I recently spent five days on Fraser Island but the weather was pretty unexciting for landscape photography and I only managed a few OKish images of Lake Mackenzie one afternoon and another few of the Maheno on the last afternoon I was there otherwise it was hot, dry, and cloudless all the time. I did take note of several locations where I would like to shoot when the light is a bit more conducive though.
