On a night of exceptional seeing, I want the final data to be a good as possible. I would choose to eliminate any images that are sub par.
I know we can correct for gradients and such in Photoshop, but I much prefer processing to enhance than to correct.
thanks Jeanette. yes, it always seems to work out best if the data is the best possible.

you could control noise to a certain extent when processing the bright subs.
That seems like a practical strategy Alistair. PixInsight attempts to grade images based on SNR (sort of) and apply weightings when stacking - I assume that this also manages brighter subs (essentially by stopping them from messing up the stack).
