    yeah, tone it down a little.

    reduce the brightness or the levels.

    just the light comin in is far too strong!

    I dont think you'll be able to do much with it really. If you drop the brightness you'll kill the foreground detail.

    It's that old catch 22 - you've metered for the inside, so the outside is whited-out. C'est la vie.

    If you can use Photoshop, select the window areas using the magic wand or lasso tool, use Levels to drop the exposure on the window area, then reverse the selection, and up the levels for the interior. Hope this helps...

    Try this maybe?

    - create a duplicae layer and overlay this with the original
    - desaturate the new layer
    - invert the new layer
    - apply a Gaussian blur to the new layer, mess with the settings till you get a good result

    This will lower the highlights and highten the lowlights, may not work out well but it's a nifty little trick. Saved some pictures for me in the past where the exposure was all wrong
