To eliminate that effect zoom in a few notches on your camera.
Michele,

I'm going to be a bit of a gadfly and the one who asks questions for the benefit of others. The term "zoom in" is a bit ambiguous, perhaps. I assume you mean zoom in on the painting (making it look bigger in the viewfinder), and not zoom back into the camera (that is, retract the lens). You and I know "zoom in" and "zoom out" from our Photoshop menus, but I wanted to make sure others were clear on that.

By the way, for those shooting with digital cameras that have a macro feature, be sure to check your manuals for the proper zoom adjustment. You might think you should "zoom in" (make the subject bigger in the viewfinder). With my Sony, at least, that's the opposite of what you do on macro.
