Reality? With your own eyes? Ha! That's a tricky thing.

Your eyes don't see the reality, the camera's depiction of colors and lightness is more close to it. The visual cortex of man's brain works like an automatic, realtime HDR processing software. Your visual perception of reality is a virtual image rendered by your brain, you only perceive the best parts of light from everywhere. Your brain won't let you to see 'blown highlights' or 'dark shadows' for example, like your camera that works on a physical base.

Similar to focus: your brain never lets you to perceive the whole image recorded by your lens and retina, only parts of it. The focus of your image is planar, like a camera's lens, but works more like a spotlight: only certain parts of the whole image gets to your attention.

I hope I didn't sound too weird... :D
