Colophon

The image on the cover of Learning OpenCV is a giant, or great, peacock moth (Saturnia pyri). Native to Europe, the moth's range includes southern France and Italy, the Iberian Peninsula, and parts of Siberia and northern Africa. It inhabits open landscapes with scattered trees and shrubs and can often be found in parklands, orchards, and vineyards, where it rests under shade trees during the day.

The largest of the European moths, giant peacock moths have a wingspan of up to six inches; their size and nocturnal nature can lead some observers to mistake them for bats. Their wings are gray and grayish-brown with accents of white and yellow. In the center of each wing, giant peacock moths have a large eyespot, a distinctive pattern most commonly associated with the birds they are named for.

The cover image is from Cassell's Natural History, Volume 5. The cover font is AdobeITC Garamond. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSansMonoCondensed.
