Oops, I should respond, ask questions and learn...

Thanks for the feedback, @
TenEightyOne and @
Azuremen. I think you two hit the nail on the head. I see something in my head, try to capture it with a picture, and more often than not, it doesn't come out quite like how I wanted it to. I read the Wiki article that Azuremen linked. As it pertains to still photography, would much of it be spending more time setting up for the shot, and dialing in the settings and composition just so? Or are you referring to my need to "remember" how I saw it and post-process to reflect what I saw? If it's the former, how should one go about shooting spur of the moment, candid shots or other shots that require that the photo be taken quickly?
For the pictures, I do look at them in Lightroom and try to do some post processing to make what I saw in my head show in the picture. With that said, obviously I'm failing.
With that said, @
TenEightyOne and @
Azuremen (and any others), how can I improve the photos? Given a picture, what should have been done to make it better? Also, what are the issues of my photos? Do you see patterns in what's wrong over multiple pictures? Are things not being framed well? Is the contrast too low? Are colors off? IsOr is it a more fundamental issue that those photos just aren't really anything interesting (lacking substance and subject)?
Seriously, any and all feedback and help is genuinely appreciated.

Err, in the meantime, I guess two final ones of Hungary.
