About Scanned at 150dpi from a bordered 5 x 7 inch print with slight cropping, sharpening, and contrast adjustments, but no digital retouching. Note that this isn\'t a commercially available Minox film: I slit down 35mm film and loaded the Minox cassette myself in the darkroom. This stairway is a part of the 19th-century estate ruins at the Lenoir Preserve in Yonkers, NY. Now located within a series of gardens, it\'s quite overgrown, and beyond the top of the stairs are just open garden plots. Although it didn\'t look quite this way in the viewfinder, this was one instance where TMX\'s notoriously easily blown-out highlights created an interesting effect! (Of course, the unique imaging qualities of the designed-in-1950 Minox lens and the just-visible grain help too.)
