Thanks Charlie, but please note that the focus is nowhere near as soft as it looks here: my print and scans are quite sharp - obviously, Usefilm's resizing demons have been at it again!
And yeah, it's a nice place to hike - it includes a huge granite quarry that closed down in the 40s that's just fascinating... but, unfortunately, is nearly impossible to photograph in a way that gives any sense of what it is.

Thanks, Mark. I was lucky, the Selenium meter on my EES-2 worked *perfectly* - it produced entire rolls of downright perfect negatives! If you're going to get one, you should really try and hold out for one that works, since there are so many of them floating around. If you do end up needing to get one repaired, you can ask John Hermanson at Camtech (though he's primarily an OM guy, he does half-frame repairs too, if he's got the parts), or if you're more adventurous, you can ask for help from the crazy old-camera tinkerers who have a very active forum at Favorite Classics (which is a very useful site about old cameras in general):

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.
