This image is just the "face" itself. The image was clipped, inverted (to produce the usual orientation which has been published), magnified by a factor of three, and contrast enhanced again, all using Color It!(tm). (Note: Much of the "blocky" nature of the image is caused by the lossy compression scheme used in JPEG files.)
