contrast,brightness,sharpen,adjust tint,resize,save for web.I used indirect reflected halogen lighting, a low ISO and a high F stop to achieve a long shutter speed. Not real happy with the result but it was a last minute thing.

Good composition and subject, and the sharpness is pretty good, but the murky grey-green background is yuck. Increase the contrast to make the background darker - black or close to it - and make the plant just a little brighter, and you'll find the image has a lot more impact.
Your focus is ok, but the pic could benifit from a levels/contrast adjustment because you have a yellow color cast on the image...also nothing about it lends to the notion of "30 Seconds or More"
