Getting the best out of your shot
You can download the original image below:

Step 1
Open up your image in Photoshop.

Step 2
The next thing we're going to do is adjust the brightness and contrast. You can do this by going to Image > Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast... Play with this feature to your heart's content.

Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop, etc. They should all work. These are just basic things you should be able to do in most photo programs. You can always download a trial. I downloaded a trial version of Paint Shop Pro on my vista computer, and the trial never ended. I'm currently on day 465 out of 30 and I can still use the program!!!

Well yeah, I know that they all work, but if you are looking at a tutorial on how to make a panorama you probably don't know what to use software wise.
