Timecode 4:20 is SO good to be able to compare results

There are so many good tips here and the render is BEAUTIFUL. So WHY would you not render out EXR for editing? Smaller head scratching moments were measuring focal distance instead of just using the eye dropper, and manually inputting sun details instead of using the Sun Position addon
