Sure why not
Apologies, I didn't realise I had to kick off the subsequent month's thread. Ooops!

Last months winner for Night time (sus)!:



This month's theme is: Leaning

You can take this to mean whatever you'd like. Maybe the subject's leaning, maybe you're shooting a Dutch angle. Idk, it's up to you. I'm not your mom.

RULES:
This thread is for posting pics & voting.
1. One submission/poster. You can change your submission as many times as you want, so long as you only have one entry when the voting begins. Edit your post to do this, please.
2. Single photos only - no video, triptychs, or multi-photo entries. Blending exposures into a single image (such as focus stacking, or HDR), is ok though.
3. Photos must be taken during the period of the contest. No pulling out old favorites!
4. Contest will be open until (at least) the last day of the month at 11:59 p.m. GMT after which voting will begin.
5. Voting will continue until some time after that, probably the 2nd or 3rd.
6. Use good judgment/good taste if venturing into NSFW or potentially offensive territory. PM me or a mod if you have questions.
7. When voting, please use the spoiler tag.
8. In the event of a tie the OP of the thread selects the winner.
9. One vote per user :)

PREVIOUS CONTEST THEMES:
January: Recovering
Febuary: Tension
March: Mindbreakers
April: Hard Light
May: Negative Space
June: Go
July: Night time (sus)

Can a mod get this thread cleaned up a bit? Paint the exterior, lay a new roof, edit that title and thread tag and sticky it.

Please and thank you 😊🙏

Removed. My photo barely qualified as leaning. I’ll take another before the month is out

I think you read the contest theme as "leaving" rather than leaning!

Here's my real submission, with myself as the subject. I tried to do a photo merge on Photoshop and struggled with the results, so I have included some additional photos for fun in this imgur album. Below is my actual submission.

Number One I order you to take a number two.


I'm trying to unpack what's going on here in my mind with the stated 1.3 seconds exposure. Was there an epic accident moments after this was taken?
