Or a dog walk, depending on how you want to look at it. Messing around my my Christmas present to me, the 50mm f1.4

#1. Before we had even left we spotted the cat, drinking some ice(?)

nice shots and great pick up on the lens. i really like the garage shot, lighting is great
 
Beautiful pictures & nicely done. I really like #5. Mossy wall. Do any of these have post processing?
 
number 7 is my favorite, i just think it has so much personality with all that wood laying around and that door type thing with the paint chipping away. i also really like the texture that thing in the middle of the room has, gives it that old worn look. awesome shot!!
 
Good shooting! I like shots 8 and 9 the most. Shots 5 and 6 show the out of focus foreground bokeh of the 50 1.4 EF in a way that's not really all that pleasant to me, but I do like the shot of the little moss 'sproutlets' (?) on top of the way: what ARE those things called???

I glanced at your Flickr and found that you work at Jessops, one of the UK's preeminent photographic suppliers. I liked the comment about how 75% of your pay goes right back to the company! Looks like a nice Christmas gift, that 50.
 
for the first photo: maybe you can use lower angle to show more about cat's face

2nd: maybe you can overexposed a little bit

3rd: i like this color

4th: nice composition

5th: very nice natural lighting and bokeh

6th: i like this motion blur

7th: nice texture, maybe you can reduce a little bit about the distraction subjects

8th: hmm, no comment

9th: the backglight is nice.. maybe you can adjust the contrast and curve at photoshop for more effect

last photo: the moment is nice!
 
ahahahaha the last photo gave me a good laugh. :] cute dog.

really nice lens. i've been wanting a 50mm 1.4 ever since i got my manual focus 50mm f1.8 Nikon E-Series lens. i really just want it for the autofocus, which i can live without for now until i get the $540 for that 1.4 D:

4, 5, and 9 are my favourites :]
