Due to the sun directly into the lens, the brightness range is too extreme. I wanted to expose for the foreground to be silhouetted and was interested in the flare performance with that big light bulb in the shot, while looking for the colour of the red backlit leaves. A monster stress test for both the lens and sensor.

Comparing your images to the last one I posted, I see we have a different view of proper brightness. I think you have gone a little bit too dark with these. Just my opinion.
