I have mentioned that a snow white car with black wheels is very difficult to photograph. Because in most lighting conditions the dynamic range between the highlight and shadow far exceeds the dynamic range capability of digital camera's imager by many magnitudes.

But our eyes are magnitudes higher - close to 1,000,000 : 1.
