Welcome. Thanks for sharing your still image. As a landscape photographer, there is some work to be done in this image. I'm use to post processing images in PS CC. Disclaimer: I've a first time drone (M2P) for about 2 weeks, so I'm still riding the learning curve. However...

My first thoughts are: (1) Learn the various settings in the controller. Take a walk through numerous YouTube videos on this subject that also include camera/video settings. Like with a digital camera, you will need to learn: Auto vs Manual (Personally, I always go with manual mode.) ISO, White Balance, f/stop, etc. (2) What post processing software do you own/familiar with? (3) Need to focus on exposure and shutter speed. There is a balance in images between overexposure and exposing in the shadow areas.Those areas are pretty straightforward in your image.(4) Myself, I would have also shot an image w/o the sun. Swung around to the left and focused the exposure level on the town. Or, wanted for the sun to go down a little more.

Hope this gets you off in the right track? Others will have more suggestions. Look forward to more of your images.

I'm fairly new to the drone world, but I've worked with digital photography for a number of years. Understanding the relationships with ISO, aperture and shutter speed are essential. I agree with RickinWaST. You would be amazed with what you could do with that photo in PS CC especially if you have a RAW copy. However, the first step is proper exposure. I would have loved to have gotten that shot, but without the sun blowout.
