This looks like morning light. I find it very difficult to use WB to balance the sunlight against the shadows in morning light. It has a certain "peachy" quality to it which is easily lost with the WB tool. :-( Instead, I set the WB to render the sunlit parts as I want them, and then adjust the shadows with saturation and luminance in Lightroom. Ususally, it's only the "blue" lever that needs adjustment. Sometimes a little tweak on "purple" can make a difference too.
It's afternoon light just before the sunset (which as you might remember is very quick here). But the time of day is irrelevant, as you certainly are right about the light qualities.
I did struggle quite a bit with the color controls in LightRoom.
Other than that, I can only criticise that there are two women in the picture that tends to draw my eye away from the composition... :-) Jostein
