if your budget is 1000 bucks for the body, a lens, and accessories, you can't go wrong with a new D50.

or even Mike's used 10D + lens would be good too.

if you plan on shooting a lot of low-light, high-ISO stuff, I'd suugesst you go for a Canon because as of now, their cameras still have less noise than any of the Nikon SLRs, excpet for the D50 :-p And like Mike said, a stronger lens lineup for you to choose from...
I don't know how many times I'd wished that Nikon had something like the 17-40L or the 70-200 f4L... damn you Nikon, forcing people to buy either consumer grade lenses or jump straight to the pro stuff.

drat.

but... Marco... nature.. .landscape..... sounds more like Nikon's forte.

Tough choice.
