Recompose tool
Select the Recompose tool, and paint
over the foreground with the Mark for
Removal tool. Click the bottom handle
of the bounding box and drag it up to
compress the foreground detail, then
drag the top handle down to produce
a more panoramic composition.

Panoramic crop
Hit Enter or click the green tick to
apply the transformation, and adjust
the Threshold slider if required to
reduce distortion. Next take the Crop
tool, select 16x9in from the Crop
Preset menu, and crop the image.

Boost colours
Add a Levels adjustment layer, and set
the Shadows slider to 27, Midtones
to 1.10 and Highlights to 254. Add a
Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer,
and set both Brightness and Contrast
to +18.
