That's just the way it goes. Some days no matter what you do you get bad results. Other days everything just clicks (pun intended!) Regarding light, or flash, do the opposite of what you might think is right. Don't use flash when light isn't bright, and use it when light IS bright Fill flash in bright light gives more detail and looks natural, but flash in dim light looks flashed. If fill flash is done right people will think WOW, that looks great, but never even get a clue flash was used.
Other than that, just keep shooting and don't worry too much. Trying to get great shots is often what prevents us from doing so. Going out just to relax and have fun will often result in better photos. IE, it's the passion.
