 Taken in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. This is the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, a building dedicated to the founder of the LDS (Mormon) church

Rotated a bit to get the persective more how I wanted it, then some simple levels, hue/sat, sharpening, and color balance to fix a color cast. All done in GIMP.

You did a nice job balancing the exposure between the building and the sky. I think your score is going to suffer a little because of all of the buildings entered in this challenge. You might want to play around with USM to see if you can get the details in the building to pop a little more. If you have USM available in your software, try Radius 50, Amount 20%, and Threshold 0 and see what it does. You may need to adjust the brightness afterwards.

The three windows on the bottom right seem out of place with all the blue ones. I want to look at all the architectural details accented by that nice blue, but those bottom windows pull my eyes back down.
