I’ve given this two days of thinking, but I give up! Please explain.
Any good jokes ... ?

The group shouted "cheese" as the photo was taken?

yes. The crowd shout "cheese". It took me a few seconds, and I was thinking about the Cooper's Hill cheese rolling race, but then realised I was over-thinking
Thanks for that; but I still fail to see exactly how and why death resulted. I notice you have a question mark at the end of your reply!

It's a simple as some unlikely falling block of cheese which landed on and killed the photographer. The joke is that everyone shouted cheese to warn the photographer about the impending hit but the photographer thought they were just saying cheese as they were being photographed.
You have to go with the scenario that the cheese was doing something likely to kill someone which everyone else could see but the photographer didn't. Unlikely, I know, but it is the premise of the joke
Ah, that kind of makes sense; thank you.
Am I the only one who failed to work it out? I think great flexibility of mind was required, and I truly failed the test: again!

Just don't jump out of your skin next time you're taking a group photo, and everyone in the group shouts "COAGULATED CASEIN!"

Question mark was to indicate that the answer I gave was what I thought, but could have been incorrect

That reminds me of a programming text book that I once had. If you looked up 'recursion' in the index it said 'see recursive functions'. When you went to 'recursive functions' it said 'see recursion'.

A pirate walked into a bar and the bartender said: 'Hey, I haven't seen you in a while.
What happened? You look terrible.'
'What do you mean?' said the pirate, 'I feel fine.'
Bartender: 'What about the wooden leg? You didn't have that before.'
Pirate: 'Well, we were in a battle and I got hit with a cannon ball, but I'm fine now.'
Bartender: 'Well, ok, but what about that hook?
What happened to your hand?'
Pirate: 'We were in another battle. I boarded a ship and got into a sword fight. My hand was cut off. I got fitted with a hook. I'm fine, really...'
Bartender: 'What about that eye patch?'
Pirate: 'Oh, one day we were at sea and a flock of birds flew over. I looked up and one of them pood in my eye.'
Bartender: 'You're kidding, you lost an eye just from bird poo?'
Pirate: 'It was my first day with the hook...'

I had to have it explained too.
