It is difficult because you are comparing your color in your photo to some other photos taken by 2 other photographers.Color is not a static thing. It is subjective to the person looking at it. Add to that that about 10% of the male population has some amount of color blindness. It is changed by decisions made in the camera menu and in post processing. The color profile can be selected in camera, and the white balance of course is going to shift the color.Your backyard photo actually looks like normal Nikon SD color profile. The greens get more subdued, which is typically more accurate to what I see live most times. The shadows look like it was closer to mid-day, which also makes color look more flat. It is a leading reason best photos are taken early morning or late-day. You could change to Vivid color. To my eyes the color in the photos you did not take have been artificially punched-up and stopped just short of looking like a cartoon.So make some changes if you want bright greens. It does not look like a broken camera to me. Use auto white balance, it tends to be accurate and won't miss by much when it does. Set color profile to something other than SD. Profiles can also be downloaded to camera and also customized yourself. There is a website with many dozens of Nikon profiles to play with. Some people worked hard at recreating what Fuji does with their color profiles built-in.</blockquote>
