I'd start by rotating it anti-clockwise, so that the verticals are vertical. I'd probably crop of some of the uninteresting railing and grass at the left. I think I'd also have stood a little further to the left when I took it, so that the lamppost was clear of the round window, but I realise that's not a particularly useful suggestion.

I am with Jeremy: verticals should stay vertical. I like the light, but there is something about the composition that distracts me: the upper floor is visible, but only in part; I do not know whether it is possible or not, but I think I would prefer a composition where it either is completely visible or completely cropped off.

Great shot. Is that the Old City Hall?
