For a beginner who does not own grads turn on Active-D Lighting in your camera and leave it set to normal. It will help you somewhat with getting better exposures. You can always increase, decrease os completely turn off Active-D afterwards inside Capture NX but you cannot turn it on later in NX when it was off in camera.
Next step if you do not have grads, learn to bracket images and do image blends, tons of tutorials on the web.
Best solution however is to invest in grads and learn to use them and learn to manually meter your light and not trust in Aperture Priority / Semi Auto Modes.
