Wide angle distortion

[Jaded62]

Hi all.

I'd like some guidance and advice please from those more experienced than me in fixing (or at least minimising) lens distortion in post processing. This is the lighthouse on Moreton Island taken from the lookout which is just a few metres away. Not that I would know but I expect that this is probably an extreme example of lens distortion cause by a wide angle lens (in this case 16mm) and the tall lighthouse being off centre in the frame.

In trying to fix this shot I realised that I was limited in what I could do with the transform tools given the limited amount of sky above the lighthouse. I have attached my transform settings FYI.

Thanks in advance.
