I may need to tweak the light levels, but the point is there is direct sunlight
in the HDR which should capture a noticeable shadow present in the second, but
not in the first.

This HDR is one of the few I have found that have a full brightness sun in it vs
one that crops out at a lower value.  This particular HDR is from Bernhardt Vogl
