Hello

 

I have the following picture and I want to create the illusion that the road is not as wide as it is. How do I pull the curb and the cars in perspective towards the centre?

If you want to make it slightly smaller, then you could use 'Filter - Camera Raw Filter', go to Geometry and set the Aspect to +100. In theory you can do this more than once to increase the effect, but that would make the cars look very odd.

Yes, just scale horizontally to squeeze the width a bit. This is a wide angle shot which is very stretched towards the edges, so there's a lot to go on before it looks unnatural - especially here, where the center is more or less empty. It wouldn't be so easy if you had a person in the foreground.

 

The alternative is to rebuild the image in sections, with selections and masks on individual parts in the puzzle. While possible, it's a lot of work.

Try Content Aware Scale

Make a rough selection around each area you want to keep in proportion then save that selection as an Alpha channel

Deselect (Ctrl+D) and go to Content aware scale (Alt+Shift+Ctrl+C). In the options bar set Protect to the alpha channel you just saved

Now hold shift and drag in the sides

You have to strike a balance between protecting areas and scaling others but, as long as you don't overdo it,  it can look reasonable
