A clever way to showcase an image is to let it maintain its original dimensions while placing it in a smaller container. Avoid using object-fit: cover or contain, allowing users to interact with the image freely, move it within the container, and zoom in for a closer look.
Consider the specific requirements of your webpage - for instance, you may want more of the image visible in its static state without user interaction. On a smaller device, providing the option to view the image in fullscreen before zooming can enhance clarity, especially for tasks like 'spot the ball' where precision is crucial.
Use this basic code snippet to kickstart your project:
.container {
width: 300px;
height: 200px;
overflow: auto;
margin: 50px;
}
img {
position: relative;
}
<div class="container">
<img src="https://i.sstatic.net/RxX4s.jpg" />
</div>
