I'm a noob too, but don't be fooled by my post counts, just that I'm very active here. So here goes my noob comments:
#1: Very nice DOF but if the full "stone thing" is shown would be much better.
#2: Slanted and seems to me that its like a "peeping" kind of shot.
#3: I will like it to show more of the stairway & railing.
#4: I like this one the best maybe of its colour, cropping off a little of the right side (pipe) would look better.

Try to take these shots again and compare them with these. Then you'll know which is better.

for archi shots...try to work with lead in lines into your subject....

will give more visual impact...
for eg...the stars if u frame such a way tt makes the stairs seem to edge from one corner to another....

will give the feeling of depth ...

juz my newbie comments..

cheers..

Nice attempt for a beginner, except that some of your pics ISO setting is quite high, as a result, some turn out grainy, got to be careful of that
