Download an HDRI pano single for free. This image was captured with about 33 stops of latitude.
I think I might like the little planet preview of this HDRI more than the lighting it provides. It’s pretty hazy so it does give some nice soft light but it doesn’t have much character. This is another decent general purpose lighting set up but I really like the little planet image. I think I like any of these little planets with water on the bottom. Something feels so strange about it and I like it!
