Old City Hall in Toronto was begun in 1889 and completed in 1899. Toronto's third City Hall, it was saved from demolition by pressure from the Friends of Old City Hall when the new city hall opened across the street in 1965. It now houses courts for the Government of Ontario.

I consider it one of the most beautiful public buildings in Toronto.

I haven't figured out how to make the colour like it appears in Photoshop CS2, so it's a little off.

Hi Robbin, in this workshop I was mainly looking to correct a vertical perspectives issue. It's caused by shooting up against a tall building, so at the top the sides tend to converge. To fix you want to pull the sides out at the top a bit. I did this with the crop tool, but I selected a little button, for perspective, once I selected the crop area (the entire frame in this case). Once this is selected you pull the corners in to align the sides with the sides of the buildings. Once you hit the check mark to complete the crop it will pull things back straight. It's done by eye so you might want to play with it a bit. Once I did this, I thought maybe I had softened it a bit so I re-sharpened with USM for the repost. I hope this meets with your approval. I have removed the copy from my terminal.

Regards, John
