Notice the caption in the bottom right corner of the photo. Because the slide will transition as soon as the end area is displayed, it’s probable that the caption won’t be on‐screen long enough for anyone to read it. To deal with this problem, you can add another Pan & Zoom effect where both the beginning and ending boxes include the entire photo. That will extend the time the caption is visible. The pan and zoom effect can do more than just zoom into and out of a photo. If your start box sits in the left half of the photo and the end box sits in the right half, the resulting effect will be to move across the photo from left to right.
There are times when no effect is necessary ‐ like this photo of armored personnel carriers sailing through the Wlooded streets of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. For the few seconds this photo is displayed in the Veterans Day slideshow, the viewer has time to take in the magnitude of the disaster.
