Nothing is stretched here, the clouds were just like that.

Really, it all looks so weird must just be an illusion then.

It's just a very wide angle lens causing pincushion distortion on the edges, you get a lot of that 'stretch' perspective shooting vertically.

I do have a related question for you, as I do not have such a wide angle lens or much experience with this technique... but if you are doing focus/exposure stacking, at what point in the process do you do lens correction?

Manually, when I am done with a focus on stacking the foreground and bringing the background layer on top of that. So after the stacking and before any global adjustment. It can be done in the end though...

How many images did you stack for the focus? I just purchased an OM-1 and would love to better understand shots like this. Are you stacking in camera? Or in post?

Lovely shot!

Four for the foreground and one for rest. Unfortunately my camera is too old for in camera stacking 🤣

Well you seem to take care of things quite well without it! Thanks for the insight!
