looks like a light leak but I don't think that it is a light leak,  
more like a pressure fault.

If you press with your nail a bit of exposed film it acts like if it  
was overexposed having a half-moon-like mark, I think this is about  
the same, which explains why it only happens on the end of the roll  
and with increasing intensity. Perhaps a difficult roll extraction,  
or anything like this, and it does not have to happen inside the camera.

my 2cents.



Any day above ground is a good one.
