About Scanned at 150dpi from a bordered 4 x 5 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 19th-century mansion is now part of the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, NY. I like how the slight overexposure and visible grain give the image a sense of mystery or evil: to me, it looks like one of the establishing shots of Hill House in the original 1964 film "The Haunting"!

Excellent composition, very strong. The top spire could have benefitted from some slight burning-in, because it's a bit overexposed.

Thanks, Mark! I believe I did burn it in about as much as I could... What you're seeing here is a bit of the dreaded blocked-up highlights syndrome of TMX in D-76, magnified by the tiny Minox negative.
