8:30, Summer, sunny, thin clouds. A wild, dry meadow with small bushes, surrounded by trees. Early sun gives nice soft shadows and highlights. The well-lit treeline is only about 60 meters away from camera, providing perfect backgrop for archvis.
Sun is unclipped, so in Cycles, you don't need any light source, other than this HDRI for realistic shadows.
Methodology:
140 photos of the environment with 12 mm DSLR lens on a panoramic head (7 expositions) with 1,66 EV spacing + 7 photos with 1,66 EV spacing of only the sun with ND1000 (10 stops) filter and 9 photos with 1,66 EV spacing with ND1000 stacked with ND4000 filter (10+12=22 stops).
