18:00, Summer, sunny. Grassy field surrounded by suburban buildings.
Sun is unclipped, so in Cycles, you don't need any light source, other than this HDRI for realistic shadows.
Camera background photos and color-graded JPG panorama: https://photos.app.goo.gl/dKxqQrYvq6iHM4GX6
Methodology: 7 expositions of the environment with 2 EV spacing (140 photos) + 7 expositions with 2 EV spacing of only the sun with ND1000 (10 stops) filter and ND1000 stacked with ND4000 filter (10+12=22 stops).
