Ha, ha, ha, ha!

If one is an idiot, like you, one will just select the foreground, invert
the selection, and then apply a tonal correction curve to the selection.
The GIMP can do this nicely.

But an idiot, like you, would not realize that such a procedure is,
in general, IMPOSSIBLE.  If the background is overexposed by +2EV,
with the foreground exhibiting a balanced tonal histogram, then the
likelihood is very high that many pixels are already "blown out"
and have reached maximum intensity.  Any further tonal compensation
of the background region would yield a visually awkward and unnatural
effect.

The intelligent photographer (that's NOT you) would entirely prevent
such an occurrence by taking a series of bracketing exposures to capture
the entire dynamic range.  Most recent digital SLR cameras have a
automatic bracketing procedure but it also be done manually.  Then, the
image series is processed with the GNU/Linux pfstools:

http://pfstools.sourceforge.net

The result is a single conventional image (not HDR) that captures the
full dynamic range of the original scene.

Furthermore, using GNU/Linux, the pfstools step can be incorporated
into a fully automated method.  Just plug your camera card into a
GNU/Linux machine and perfectly processed images will result automatically.
