Repeat again to get brightest image

Step 2, Edit> Overlay, choose different brightness photos for different zones

Use the mid bright photo as the base, overlays the entire upper part with the darkest photo, the in-photo-border must be soft whereas the image border should be hard or stitch line will show - simply extend the soft borders beyond tge image borders.

Lastly, use Edit> Colour, brush tool, to raise the darkest area, indicated in yellow above.

This is the end product.
