Created a panorama in Photoshop - and once it has done its magic this is the result



The question is how can I straighten that horizon?

Thanks
 
Image/transform/warp.
Just a quick go at it, I'm sure you would get it better given a bit of time.

 
Thanks for that Pete. Having only just bought Photoshop have a lot to learn.
 
The great ocean road... Fantastic place.

Your main problem was taking the shots to create the pano. Try and take the frames in Portrait (gives more room to crop) and then rotate your head and lens as one keeping your eye in as close to the same position as possible. (shame you didn't have a tripod).

Well spotted. London Bridge to be precise

I think the main problem may be the lens - the Tamron 18-270 has quite a bit of barrel distortion at the short end. I am wondering if I might get a better result if I correct the individual images first.
 
Most panorama programs have a horizon height setting which will keep the horizon straight. Don't use PS so can't help with that.
