Photographic Tale of the Week - Your Just a Distant Memory

"Your Just a Distant Memory" by Keith (Kpryor23)

Considering my somewhat poor ability to remember things, every memory seems to be a distant one. Maybe that's for the best, living my life in the present moment or something like that. It's a good thing my partner can remember almost every single detail from her childhood, including the lyrics of songs that she sings to our four kids. If I were to attempt the same thing I would be sitting there with my cellphone looking up the words for songs I don't know the names of.
This feeling (of a memory recalled from a long time ago) is wonderfully captured by Keith in "Your Just a Distant Memory" - today's Photographic Tale of the Week. Perched at the edge of water, a pier and a figure - in a sea of bokeh - provide a phantom background to a wall of silhouetted oats - both porous and imposing with their slender concentration.

Here is what Keith has to say about it:

When I took this photo it reminded me of when someone try's to recall a memory from long ago. I think it makes an interesting composition with the depth field. including the pier, the person, and the oats.
Good night and Good luck
