Question

I have the following CSS code :

@keyframes hvr_shadow
{
    from
    {
        box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
    }

    to
    {
        box-shadow: 0px 0px 6px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.8);
    }
}

@-moz-keyframes hvr_shadow /* Firefox */
{
    from
    {
        -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
    }

    to
    {
        -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 6px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.8);
    }
}

@-webkit-keyframes hvr_shadow /* Safari and Chrome */
{
    from
    {
        -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
    }

    to
    {
        -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 6px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.8);
    }
}

#gallery .fancybox
{
    border: 1px solid #333;
    display: block;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    height: 138px;
    -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
}

#gallery .fancybox:hover
{
    animation: hvr_shadow 700ms;
    -moz-animation: hvr_shadow 700ms; /* Firefox */
    -webkit-animation: hvr_shadow 700ms; /* Safari and Chrome */
    -o-animation: hvr_shadow 700ms; /* Opera */
}

While the animation is working, after a while the shadow auto return to primary settings.

How can I keep the settings of the animation while the mouse is still hovering the image ?

This will solve your problem:

-webkit-animation: hvr_shadow  700ms .1s 1 ease-in-out normal forwards;
-moz-animation: hvr_shadow  700ms .1s 1 ease-in-out normal forwards;
-o-animation: hvr_shadow  700ms .1s 1 ease-in-out normal forwards;
animation: hvr_shadow  700ms .1s 1 ease-in-out normal forwards;
