If the Action isn't working, there's a template in the Action which you can alter by using your own photo. This Action is a great solution in any circumstance that calls for the placing of a scene and image or subject in a realistic sphere.
The default action asks you for the quantity of the "spherize" effect that you would like to create. It is possible to toggle the filter Option and for other steps of the procedure. Any time you want to alter the Action I would suggest creating an additional copy.
