24-120 @ 24mm, stitched in ACR.  Distortion is caused by stretching an imperfectly aligned series of photos to fit a rectangular frame.

Interesting thought that it was because of the earth has moved ::)
Nice picture :)

Definitely not a keeper for me. No way to change the stitching parameters and avoid distortion ?

I am with MFloyd on this.
The pano could be interesting but it is very unevenly stitched and full of distorsion.

If stitched in ACR then you can use the adaptative wide angle filter in PS and fix the lines, perhaps you need to redo the stitching from inside PS

I was trying to get a distorted look.  Perhaps if it the distortion was extreme it would work better as some are interpreting it as a mistake rather than an artistic expression.

Ron, you may want to exaggerate the distortion, which would make the image more interesting?

Am I observing a kind of "W-shape" distortion?

W sort of.  Exaggerating it is an idea.  I will have to try that, but probably with a different image.

Am looking forward to seeing it!

Make it worse. You may start a new trend!  :D
