Could also be resolved by using masks in Photoshop. Had a lesson in it last year and it worked well but Id be struggling to remember the correct procedure now.
Essentially you copy your first layer and enhance layer 2 a bit (curves) then partially erase the brighter section to reveal the original, rinse and repeat. Merge the layers at Save or otherwise you save a huge file with multiple layers.
Must have another play with it ... it was very effective on Trifid and Lagoon, our test image.
