Very, very nice collection. Might I suggest that if you want to have some "real fun" ... transform these into Black and White. You might be pleasantly surprised at the outcome.
If you rent the Tamron 18-400mm and use the DX choice on your d750, that gives you 600mm results with a lot less weight.
I like this very much. Great use of "negative space!"
I had the same thoughts shortly after being bitten with the "Photography Bug." But that all changed when I began to shoot in Raw and discovered the wealth of information (using Lightroom) that was captured in my images. I believe that it is my responsibility to process that information to produce the most desirable image possible. I also believe that this is the attitude that many "successful" photographic artists have employed for years!
What a beautiful image. I have been to the GB Botanical Garden many times, but I haven't been fortunate enough to see an image like this. I'll have to "explore more" in the Autumn season.
I would recommend checking out some YouTube videos. There are many from professionals who take you through a process to help answer your question? Also, you stated that you are a "nature lover." What part of nature? Landscapes, birds, animals, water, etc.? Try to narrow your interest and it may help with your decision. I have travelled the same journey over the last 7+ years since I retired and have changed course a couple of times. It's a great hobby and you are going to have the "ride of your life."
Consider Antelope Canyon in Page, AZ. Terrific opportunities!

What are you asking for the lens. Just curious. Thank you
I have it listed on eBay for $450 which includes Free Shipping (to USA Only). Lens, HB-7 Hood, Front and Rear Caps, all original made in Japan merchandise. What were you thinking for yours?
I have a Nikon 80-200 f/2.8D in Excellent condition, with caps and hood. I'm not a professional, so it hasn't been used daily, but produces "pro type" results. It is listed on eBay now but I could de-list if interested. PM me and I can provide photos and other info.
Great shots! Love how you can see the Egret's head in shadow on it's right wing in #1.
