Do you recall how long was Shotwell running for? What size is your library?

Would you be willing to privately send me one of the pictures in
question? I would like to try and reproduce this issue at Yorba.

Do you happen to recall if you had also rotated the photo prior to
zooming? There is a known issue with rotation. I wonder if this might
be related: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/4813

I will try to reproduce this, but if you didn't see it again, it
sounds like something that was just a fluke. I will keep you advised.
