In brightly lit situations it's hard to get both the bright and dark areas exposed correctly. For basic editing the options to correct this in post processing are a bit limited. The highlights/shadow tool in photoshop CS helps a lot in these situations.
If the image wasn't for a basic editing challenge then you could take two images (one to expose the bright areas and one to expose the dark areas) then merge them in your editing software.
