I do a lot of architectural photography (occasionally professionally) here are a couple quick rules of thumb when working with ultra wide lenses and buildings:
#1 - Keep your camera horizon level. This is most important and simplifies any post processing perspective correction.
#2 - Use as little up-tilt as possible.if you want to correct it later in post. You will loose a significant amount of foreground due to keystoning and it will affect the vertical proportions. Ignore this if that is the intention of the shot.
#3 - Learn what f stop will give you the best corners. It's often in the F11 - F16 range.
Enjoy your new lens! - Kk
