The 'Zoom In' meme format stems from the 'Enhance' trope commonly seen in crime procedural shows like CSI, where investigators magically find high-resolution evidence in grainy footage. On the internet, this evolved into a multi-panel format where a broad image is progressively cropped to reveal a surprising, hilarious, or absurd detail hidden in the background. It is frequently used to mock awkward facial expressions of bystanders, weird objects in the periphery of celebrity photos, or subtle Easter eggs within digital art. This format thrives on the shock value of the final reveal, turning ordinary scenes into comedic gold through the power of focus.
