These are good. They're simple, but they show depth, and you have a decent understanding of composition for someone who is just starting. About your name, though, if that's your actual name, I'd ask a mod to change it for you. It's not a very good idea to have your real name posted on this site.

I agree that the photos show a lot of depth. I like how in #3 you shot it at an angle so your eyes can follow the wall back. The only thing i can advise on in concern to the photos is in #4 the door is shot at an angle that seems like you stood on the right and shot the door at an angle. I think this photo would've been great if you shot the door head on and even if you put it off center.

Your visual concepts are great. You have a perceptive eye and these shots give a very good sense of space.
The blown highlights almost seem intentional.
They seem very, very grainy - is that a function of being compressed? A d50 takes a better shot than that.
Did you use a tripod? I am guessing no.
Keep shooting. . . .keep posting. . . thanks for sharing.

just don't exaggerate blown highlights.

...which is why fat girls shouldn't wear bikinis.

1. Framing and subject is great but that blown out window irritates me. I would have let a little less light in because it's ok if it's just blown out a little.

2. I like the sense of symmetry and use of lines within the subject but it's a little crooked which can be fixed by cropping.

4. Again I would crop to get it straight, but otherwise this would be my favorite one.

5. Love this! haha it's definitely a nice choice of location.

They all seem a bit grainy though, I'm not sure if that's the camera although like DevilC said a NikonD50 is a very good camera, or if it's noise created during editing. Otherwise you have an eye for design so keep shooting.
