The scene looks peaceful.  From an compositional stand point, I would crop some off the bottom and the left. The f29 aperture is unnecessary. As in some of the previous comments, my suggestion would be to set the aperture at f8 and forget it, at least until you get more proficient. An aperture of f8 would have allowed you to set the ISO at a more reasonable setting of say 400. Keep shooting and posting.

From a technical standpoint, I'd make the following changes.  f/29 is WAY to small an aperture.  Go back to f/8. On this image that would have given you a much faster shutter speed.  Your image at 1/100 is struggling with softness due to camera movement with a 300mm lens.

As they say, "F8 and be there".  In this case being there on the right side of the grass is much better, just fix the F8 part.  And turn that iso down to 800 too. enlightened This one has a nice peaceful feel to it. devil
