Imaging with the moon out

Hi All

I just wanted to find out what happens if you image with the moon out (99%).
Aimed about 45 degrees away from it.
First thing I noticed I had to decrease the gain (compared to a dark night).

I just happened to be awake when the moon finally set and the histogram peak moved right across the graph (to the left) in a few seconds.

Quite interesting really.

Anyway I did get a result on NGC2237.
120 of 60 sec. subs with guided OSC.
