| A less likely scenario is that you might use some tungsten-balanced film with daylight or flash... just in case you wanted to know what would happen, that would look like this: |

ALLIGNMENT You must try to get the camera lined up perfectly "square" with the art. That is, the film plane of the camera should be perfectly (as much as possible) parallel with the plane of the art with the lens pointing directly into the center of the piece. Otherwise, your rectangular art might come out looking like a trapezoid. If you were off a little bit to the left of center, then the left side of the art would be closer to the camera than the right side... so the left side would look bigger... like this exaggeration: |
 |
| Naturally, if you are off to the right... the opposite would be true such as below: |
 |
| If you have the art on an easel which has the art tilting back, you might see something like this: |
 |
| If the art is tilting back, then the camera should be higher to allow the film plane to be parallel with the art. If the art is hanging on the wall from a nail, it might be tilting forward. So the camera would need to be lower to keep it square with the art. |
