Scenery

I'm fiddling around with scenery, and am getting a bit stuck.
I have a panorama file which I would like to use which covers about 150 degrees of the view. Given the terrain and trees getting in the way, that is the part of the view that I need.
However when I convert it to .TGA format and then load it in as a Panorama in the Sky layer, the view gets stretched into a 360o full circle panorama. Obviously that is distorting the image.

Other than going out and redoing a 360o panorama (which would look weird, because right behind me are some trees), are there any tips on how to do scenery?

There's no way to change it in game. The image will always stretch to fill 360°. However you could add a large blank portion to the image so that the non-blank portion only covers 150° of the view.

Thanks - that makes sense.
I was already thinking along those lines, but can't get things to line up properly.
I think it may be where I took the photo from, so will try again, maybe from a drone.
