Copied with a Canon EOS Digital Rebel with EF 50mm f/1.8 mounted on a copy stand at the UConn art department. ISO 100, f/8, 1/25s. To avoid blurring, all rotation and perspective correction was done with Hugin as a frontend to the nona stitching engine, using the Sinc1024 interpolator. The image was then cropped and level-adjusted with Gimp and saved with a JPEG quality of 0.9.
