First, although I’ve loved “taking pictures” for years, I still consider myself a rookie. I loved my Nikon D50 (we went everywhere together) but recently I got a Nikon D500 camera body.
What I’d like to know is what you would recommend as a good all-round versatile lens. I like street photography, landscapes, old buildings/ruins, dogs (I go sheepdog trials whenever I can), horses - action shots in general - not too much into portrait photography.

Thanks in advance.

The one lens that would cover most of the situations you cite and still be compact and lightweight, is the 18 - 200. I used it for years and it covered 90% of everything. It gives you the equivalent of 27 - 300mm, and is quick focusing and sharp.
