Photography Question

Photoshop panorama


 
 
This is my first attempt at using Photoshop CS Panorama stitching. There are 5 photos, taken at Po Lim, outside Hong Kong. As you can see the right-hand picture didn't blend well. What did I do wrong? Any suggestions as to how to fix it or be sure it doesn't happen again? Thanks

  Sorry, Jan, but your photo didn't load; try again so we can see what the problem looks like.

  Putting together photos to make a panorama work best with lenses that have a flatter perspective. At least 50mm. Using wide angle lenses, the curved distortion out on the edges makes them hard to line up. So you have to take more pictures so you can use mostly the center part of each picture where distortion is at it's least.
Plus, rotating the camera, the pivot point should be at the diaphram of the lens. Which is the apeture blades, and not the center post of the tripod. The closer you are to that point, the better the pictures should line up.
