Nikon produce many dozens of models in various product ranges, which model have you used?
Saying "Took them with a Nikon" is like saying "Made this in Xara".. Nikon, like Xara - is the
company name.
It is a mistake to think that professional photographers don't post-process. They generally shoot RAW and process in ACR or Lightroom (or Aperture)
Letting the camera process your JPGs is almost as bad as it was taking your film to a 1hour developing shop.
If you camera has Av mode (aperture priority) try this instead of Auto or P (program)
Your first photo above could have been much nicer if you had set the camera to Av and opened the aperture right up (lowest F number) as this would have blurred out the background leaving the Bird of Paradise flower isolated as the main subject you intended.
