Question: Image processing: transition between two halves of an image

do you know if it's possible to make the transition between two halves of an image less sharp in order to obtain a more soft and realistic effect? I mean something like the image on the left and not the image on the right, which is too artificial and that I have obtained with the code attached below   Imm = imread('moon.jpg'); figure imshow(Imm) darken = linspace(0,0,800); darken = repmat(darken,[1085 1 3]); Imm_darken = Imm; Imm_darken(:,1:800,:) = uint8(darken.*single(Imm_darken(:,1:800,:))); figure imshow(Imm_darken) I've tried different tecniques but none of them gives the effect I'm looking for.

you must define the dim factor in a way that is
1.between 0 and 1,
2. it has smooth transition.
for example here in order to make it more realistic, I used a power2 spacing instead of even spacing.
 
A = imread('luna.bmp'); % read image 'luna.bmp'
figure(1);imshow(A) % show the original image

dim = linspace(0,1,90);
dim = dim.^2; % create a dimming factor ranging from 0 to 1 with power2 spacing.
dim = repmat(dim,[180 1 3]); % repeat this factor for all rows
Adim = A;
Adim(:,180:-1:91,:) = uint8(dim.*single(Adim(:,180:-1:91,:))); % dim the right side of the picture
figure(2);imshow(Adim)
