Good first effort.

This is pano software PTAssembler that will help fix the lines and stitch the image for you.

There are allot of threads about panos they all have something good to offer just do a search.

Went through and reworked this as y'all explained. I think it turned out much better.

absolutely! but I think the colors could be a bit brighter. bit of curves or levels would help.

I tried, but it started looking unnatural. It was grey and dark up there...and lots of brown on the ground.

an s-curve really works.

I took a try at putting some color in the photo I hope you don't mind. First I used the measure tool and warp tool to straighten the photo. Next I used selective color and played with the levels in the red, yellow and green. Next I use a curves layer and made and s-curve in the red and green channels and then pulled the midtones down slightly in the blue. I then used a mask to take out the hue of the clouds because they turned yellowish. Then I duplicated the photo and selected the sky only using the magic wand and created a gradient of two light blues and faded that to about fifty percent. Hope you didn't mind I'll get rid of it if you want.

Don't mind at all!! Y'all taking what I'm doing and working and telling me what and how helps me learn. Colors look good. The warping kind of messed up the other parts. Can see some wavy trees and such. I think the ground looks a bit harsh too.

It was alittle hard to do with a smaller file. The easiest way for those long horizons to stay straight is the set up before you shoot. What I have also done is had the warped layer and a regular layer underneath and mask out the weirdness like those trees that have a big lean in them now so that they stay straight up and down, then work with the healing brush to smooth out in area where there is less details like in the grass and hills. The selective color layer can also be faded to your liking.

Here are some of my examples.
