Aspose.Cells.Drawing.Picture picturesource = workbook.Worksheets["Picture"].Pictures[0];
// Save Picture to Memory Stream
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(picturesource.Data);
// Copy the picture to the Result Worksheet
workbook.Worksheets["Result"].Pictures.Add(picturesource.UpperLeftRow, picturesource.UpperLeftColumn, ms, picturesource.WidthScale, picturesource.HeightScale);
