Plowing, Nikon D800E, Nikon 28 - 300, F3.5 - 5.6, VR, sample

All the pics you've posted on this forum have had the same, mid level,  look.  The camera you are using distinguishes the difference - and deserves better.

Great lens for travel though, perhaps on a smaller body.

You'd make a lot better photos with a better lens on a lesser camera...
