With film you use a graduated neutral density filter to even out the extreme contrast in lighting. Check out Galen Rowell's website; he was an expert at that technique.


If you are using digital then you can use a technique called HDR which allows you to blend frames from the exact same scene into one image. It works very well to overcome the differences in contrast that the natural scene exhibits.
