 Had a business meeting in the country and luckily had the camera gear with me. The site has two lighthouses, an old one wich is no longer used and a newer bigger one(not in the image). Had pictured this image in my mind before I got there :) To get the reflection of the lighthouse I had to put the tripod into the water and step on stones to avoid getting wet toes.

Love the image, no way country life though so I am not surprised it didn´t do better but like I said, love the image and would hang it up on my wall if I had taken it. Just went to my favorites along with you.

Love the foreground elements with this shot. Beautiful tonesas well. I'm not so sure it screams country life but who cares. Excellent.

A fantastic capture. The composition and exposure are impecable. Some may say that this is not country living in the conventional sense of that idiom, but this is definitely a countryside. My favourite in this challenge. 10

Great shot! I love the colors and lighting. However this would be better in "Costal Life" instead of "Country Life".

Beautiful shot! Not what I perceive as "country" - more "coastal" to me.
