hide the lens when they lift the finger up #13

Thanks for the PR, but I actually like the fact that the lens stays open when you release your finger because it allows you to view the zoomed image without your finger obstructing the view. You can tap anywhere else to hide the lens.

In any case, I feel the magnifying lens design isn't ideal for mobile. The best zooming experience on mobile would be to use the mobile's entire screen as the magnifying lens when they tap on the image, similar to what Amazon does on mobile. I may get around to creating an optional plugin for Magnify that does this, but no time at the moment, although you are free to give it a shot :).

Closing after #12. Although maybe you could have a timeout here.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll add that as an option.

P.S. I should be able to work on an optional plugin for Magnify that provides a better mobile zooming experience today.
