Very nice image. The M6 II does have a great dynamic range. I think your shot was helped by the Sun shining through some clouds and haze which diminished its brightness to the point where you could capture its disk. Also the shaded side of the buildings look to have had some skylight and perhaps reflected light from other buildings which also brightened the shadows some.

Thanks. I guess I did cheat a bit. My image was a RAW file, exposed more or less for the highlights in the sky,. The building shadows were opened up around two stops in Lightroom. All said, I think it still holds up well.

Both of your images are straight out-of-camera?
