Description: The Moon was very bright last night and most of my processing time was spent trying to deal with heavy light gradients. I was playing around reprocessing the image today and realized I had lost several small galaxies while attempting to negate the light gradients. I reprocessed the image today and this time concentrated on trying to preserve these small galaxies yet still remove the gradients..
