It's been a while since I've submitted for a challenge and so I have no idea if this will be well-accepted or not.
30-second edit:
Curves in Lightroom

Probably should sharpen a bit, but I think it's pretty sharp already
It was such a beautiful morning in Central Park; not a cloud in the sky and the freezing air making everything crisp. The sun rises on the East side of the park, putting the Upper West Side in bright sunshine, which seemed clearer than ever this morning.
The building is San Remo. Past and present residents include Steven Spielberg, Donna Karan, Steve Jobs, Demi Moore, Glenn Close, Dustin Hoffman, Bono, Steve Martin, Bruce Willis, Eddie Cantor, Robert Stigwood, Marshall Brickman, Jackie Leo, Don Hewitt, and Texas natural gas heiress Adelaide de Menil. Rita Hayworth spent her last years there.*
Some aspects about the picture bother me: the black of the tree trunk in the top right (lost on reducing file size) and the half-visible building on the left. But otherwise, I love the colours, especially the green v. the blue, and hope the viewers will too.
