What software to do you have? Look for something called highlights and shadows. What you need to do is recover the details lost in the blown out areas. This can be done by reducing contrast as well.

If the area is completely overexposed, then there is nothing you can do.

The program mentioned in the other thread, which I downloaded, and other such programs, have a way to take another part of the photo and use a "spray can" to fill in the offending areas.

You can use the Clone tool to copy other parts of the image. I used that on some of the photos at http://yosemitecampsites.com/ to remove people.

I tried that but couldn't get it to work. Maybe I have to resort to reading the directions.

That's not true at all. The program mentioned in the other thread, which I downloaded, and other such programs, have a way to take another part of the photo and use a "spray can" to fill in the offending areas. I tried to do that but could not get the program to do it for me.

You can use a feathered selection (to avoid harsh edges) and overlay from another image the same texture that you want to be in the overexposed area. I've never gone to such lengths in my post processing because I usually just give up on the blown highlights, but that should work if you're willing to spend a lot of time trying to make it look realistic. It's kind of like a manual, potentially more accurate version of the healing brush in photoshop.
