I posted this in the C&C but I also wanted to posted here ... Let me know for future reference should I be posting in only one place?

So, let me hear all the flaws .. this is the image manage to save .. :( I tried to capture all this with 3 shots out of my UWA but that didnt work!

I dont like the distortion on the left, but I'll learn to live with it until I can re-shot or something ..

But you all point out the other many flaws ....

Wow - was my first thought. The horizon is a bit wonky - you can't transform/skew it down on the left? - but wonky or not, still like it.

Thanks guys .. I don't know exactly how can I fix that since all the pictures after review are straight .. I guess CS4 when stiching makes them like that .. :(

If I knew how to fix it I would but I dont - so this is the best I can do!

I'm glad you guys enjoyed it!

With careful use of the Liquify tool you can warp that back straight.

You can try manually tweaking the corners in the transform tool.

You could use the lens correction tool to remove the distortion on another layer copy, then blend in that side of the image.

There's lots of ways to fix it.

As for the rest, it's a really nice image with a range of colours.

Empire Fulton State Park? Looks lovely, but I spot a few technical details that are somewhat distracting. First, as has been said, the left side gives the appearance that the camera rotated a bit... like one leg of your tripod was on a hill, or it was handheld. Second, some the stitchings are off (what I am guessing are angles 2 and 3, from the left), and the exposure is perhaps again a bit off between a couple of angles moving toward the right.

Still, my first thought was "wow." I love shooting from that vantage :)

Can I suggest you try using Hugin (external link) for your panorama stitching. It's a great freeware application for panorama stitching [available on Mac/PC/Linux] that does a great job on straightening wonky horizons - its much better and more flexible than Photomerge built into CS3/Elements 6 although it requires more user input.

Oh, great shot BTW!
