I guess you took the picture or were there when it was taken and have first hand knowledge. You decided to make a statement with an unsure question mark at the end. But hey, some dogs just like to yap, you know?
I've known ExtremistPullup for about four years and I know that he wouldn't do something unsafe with firearms.
Fortunately, modern day digital cameras have this thing called a liquid crystal display on the back side of them. A liquid crystal display (LCD) is a thin, flat panel used for electronically displaying information such as text, images, and moving pictures. Its uses include monitors for computers, televisions, instrument panels, and other devices ranging from aircraft cockpit displays, to every-day consumer devices such as video players, gaming devices, clocks, watches, calculators, and telephones.
Since the viewing angle of LCDs can be upwards of 110 degrees, you are not required to be inline with the plane of the pixels you are viewing. This means your head can be offset from the display you are viewing. In addition, a shutter release can allow you to be very far removed from the camera. A shutter release is a button or lever that is pressed by the photographer in order to open the shutter and take a picture. If you do not have a shutter release, you can also make use of a self timer. A self timer is a device on a camera that, when enabled, gives a delay between the pressing of the shutter release and the shutter firing. It is most commonly used to allow photographers to take a photo of themselves, hence the name.
Ultimately this means you can take a photo of something you aren't sticking your head in front of... like a loaded weapon.
I generally tend to assume people are intelligent enough to use these methods when photographing loaded weapons. I would do this in other areas, but apparently Coffee Creek helps drag down the average enough that it's not worth the effort.

1. I am glad you have known him for four years. It at least proves that someone who answers most things with wisecrack statements can still develope a lasting relationship.
2. Thanks for the ramble in digital photography and LCD usage it was very ..... useless.
3. You never assume with when it comes to loaded weapons.

He wasn't assuming... he knew it was loaded.
Drink some coffee or something.

I didn't think it was useless. I found it informative.
