PictureBox doesn't land on correct coordinates

So I am trying to move a pictureBox onto a panel. The problem is that the picturebox doesn't land on to the coordinate of the mouse but instead someplace else.

    private void pictureBox1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        pictureBox1.DoDragDrop(pictureBox1,DragDropEffects.Copy);
    }

    private void panel1_DragEnter(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy;

    }

    private void panel1_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy;
        pictureBox1.Location = new Point(e.X,e.Y);
    }

What is wrong with my code?

e.X and e.Y represent screen coordinates and it seems you're looking for client coordinates. 

pictureBox1.Location = panel1.PointToClient(new Point(e.X, e.Y));
