On a country motorcycle ride: Flag flying,laundry hung to dry, children in a pool (look closely - on the deck), cows in the pasture, and a silo painted with the message, "Serve God and Milk" with another painted flag above that. About as country as you can get in rural Ohio. A little cropping, contrast adjustment, and sizing for submission finished the scene.

I think this meets the challenge dead on. The cows in the foreground, the drying laundry, the house, the flag, and the silos(?). But the sky is too bright. Did you try taking the picture when the sun was lower in the sky? It may have brought the blue out more.

that is a really great shot, haha but that house looks like a face. the american flag is its nose.

This is the way I remember the country I like the way you have included more than one thing about the country, 6

I really like the lighting. The cows are pretty well in focus. But the trees in the background could be more focused.

If you didn't Auto Level, it may have helped a little with the color cast / haze / slight overexposure in the BG
