real or matchbox?

I wish I knew how I got this shot to look like it does. My guess is it was mostly the film (Agfa Optima 100) and a polarizer (I was shooting at pretty much exactly 90 degrees to the sun, so the polarizer was working it's magic).

Do you have a higher res version of that? I'd like to make it my desktop but it's a little too small. My screen is 1600x1200, although I'd probably make the image smaller than that with a small border. Let me know, thanks. Great pic.

I'm expecting Wallace and Grommet to pop up any minute and get into that CR/W MCS in the center. Great Shot.
