I have on two occasions arrived at my home field with a low sun, haze & runway 24 impossible to see the ground. The field is grass with at least 150 metres of landable width at the left side, estimating height from the adjacent clubhouse and missing the strip by 50metres, set land attitude and wait for the bump is not a good way to behave! Therefore I haven't flew 24 on this kind of days since.
As for telling someone you're lost, absolutely agree.
