Is my GPU properly seated into the motherboard (with pictures)?

This is the first computer I've built, and I'm hoping not to screw anything up too detrimentally.

I have pretty much everything assembled, and I just put the GPU into the system. It seem feels pretty securely in the PCIe slot; however, I didn't hear a click or anything indicating it's secure. Plus (see picture), it doesn't look like it's fully in the slot, though I could definitely be wrong. I don't want to power anything on until I'm sure it's seated correctly.

The motherboard is a MSI Z97A Gaming 6, the GPU is the MSI R9 390, and the case is a NZXT S340.

Like I said, I'm new to this, so any help would be great and very much appreciated!
