I take all of these with my S6 phone as I don't normally want to cart around a dSLR camera with me.
I feel like continuing, but I know very little about photography. What do you think of the current content I'm producing? Are there any recurring issues I'm making? Which shots are the best so far?

Thanks.
Keep it up! The only way to learn is through practice. If you prefer using your S6 for now, then stick to it. I do like the location for your photo of 641 on the X70.
I'd suggest looking for areas that you aren't being hampered by parked vehicles and/or other street furniture. There's plenty of City Centre locations for that, if you want to move away from bus stations and such. The foot of Northumberland Street is good for getting photos of buses coming in via High Street West, and you've also got Market Street, Grainger Street and Newgate Street not too far away!
I'd also look to pick an angle you like for photos, and try sticking to that for a bit. Gives you more to compare to, as you gain more experience in photography. Have you been to any rallies before? If not, try and get yourself along to Durham at the end of June and get some photos.
