Weird question regarding camera getting it very wrong

[Dave Throgmartin]

That's a really tough scene. This one might beg for HDR - the shot you have here exposed for the sky and another with the house/ground exposed properly.

As is, for this image to work out it would appear to require a significant brightening of the house/ground.

Agreed......many times there is too much dynamic range in a scene to capture it with one exposure....HDR or a variant of it is he most obvious answer. Sometimes you can get by with just one exposure for the foreground and one for the sky and just blend them in photoshop without doing complete HDR tone mapping.
