I found it surprisingly easy to do, mostly because you don't have to follow the outline of the element exactly, and for the tip to feather the selection by 25 pixels. Touch-up can be done by erasing from the new layer and/or cloning where required. And since you're staying within the same scene, there's no worry about matching the direction or color of light.
Try it and post your results here.

That is really cool, Linda! If I had a wide angle mountain, I would try it. I'm going to brouse through my files and see where else this might be advantageous.

I had to increase the size of my pots. I didn't want the plants getting root bound.

I hate this video because my day is now going to be spent going over a <1000 wide angle landscape photos that desperately need this technique. Seriously, this was the best PS landscape photography tutorial that I have seen. Thank you, thank you, Linda.

You're welcome Linda, I like to us my 12-24mm lens a lot when shooting landscape images, this technique works great on images like that.
