Its called Lens distortion at the angle your taking the photo. the only way to really fix this is to 1 move to another location .. or 2 get a better lens .. most of the high dollar lenses out there help with this issue. there is no camera settings that will correct it.
 
its the kit lens :( 18 - 55 mm

and what does moving to different place mean ? ( from different side ? )
 
If the camera is perfectly level, why is it pointed up? Or do you mean it's level side-to-side?

The building 'leans' due to perspective. You can correct it with some cameras after the image is taken, as well as many editing programs.

You've taken the image with the camera aimed up. All the vertical lines will eventually meet up at one point in the sky (technically called the zenith) if you were to extend them. It's normal. The wider your lens goes, the more pronounced it becomes.

In order to 'straighten' it out, you would need to be even with the center of the building, which means moving up.
 
Wow, thats a lot of info :)

thanks verymuch guys, and yes i meant levelled side to side.. it is pointing up (sorry for misinformation)

and yea just stumbled on that keystone effect myself.
