Pic from a few years ago. I was, and still am fairly new to riding, The sidestand ground on the asphalt. I did not realize how close I was to lifting the rear tire. After following this thread now I see the light. FWIW the rear shock was getting soft. It was a different bike after installing the Ohlin unit.

Looking at the road instead of the Photog wouldn't hurt either.

Those don't look like proper motorcycle boots. I bet your ankle and shin protection is compromised.

You are also not on the throttle mid turn, you are decelerating.
