Impossible to answer without knowing what type of phorogaphs you like to take.  D5300 is a crop-sensor (DX) body.

You mean you need a tele lens.
There are zillions of choices, other than price there's the weight you are ready to carry and how much you want.
if you want to do sports or birds or wildlife then you need big expensive and heavy lenses, a 70-300 or a 55-250 might be just enough.
There are excellent and very reliable reviews of those lenses here, check them

Ladies have weird proverbs but once a lady used a proverb I liked, i know few if any ladies read here, the proverb was " you'll have to kiss several frogs before finding the prince" you will be happy with your purchase first, then you will discover you need something else, those lenses aren't expensive and you won't lose a lot reselling them anyway that's learning cost.
Anyways doesn't matter which one you choose, just make sure it'stabilized (with VR) you will need this feature.
