Weapons In Pictures

On another thread a poster commented "So glad to not see weapon in picture."

Do other people feel this way and why? The poster was asked and didn't reply.

I want to see the guns. That's one of the reasons I'm on here.

I'm sorry but if you're on this site and somehow offended by seeing a weapon in a picture you should probably find another forum.
sorry if my emoji's offended anyone

Looks don't matter for guns and dogs as long as they do the job

I don't care either way. It is a personal decision. I know a lot of people try to portray hunting in a positive light especially toward non hunters by cleaning up the blood and posing the animal for a nice picture. In fact I was on a hunt in Kansas with a couple of friends the 4th guy was friends with my buddy but I had never met him. We became good friends over the week and really hit it off. Every deer that was shot he took all the pictures and cleaned and posed all the deer and hunters for several different photos, including mine. It is a lot of work and time. I appreciated his time and effort and some of the best hunting photos I have. I have never been that guy but appreciate the guys who enjoy and care about those things. Their choice but just really not me.

Thanks

I like with and without. I really appreciate a well done picture as Bucklowery mentioned above. I try to get a good shot in but it's not always possible.

Eye candy works for me.

I don't see any gun.

I like to see the pictures, especially if associated with a story. My problem is the lack of experience of the photographers. I have a hard time seeing the hunter's face, a good pic of the game and maybe the firearm used.

That gun ain't ugly.

Zeiss also feels weapons should be minimized or left out of photos containing their products.
