Title: This test only has one question, but it's a very important one.

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally. The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.
Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.

THE SITUATION:
You are in Florida , Miami to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless.
You're trying to shoot career-making photos There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
===============================================
THE TEST:
Suddenly you see a man and a woman in the water. They are fighting for their lives, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer. Somehow they look familiar. You suddenly realize who they are. It's Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi!! At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take them under forever. You have two options: You can save their lives or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the deaths of two of the world's most powerful people.
===============================================
THE QUESTION:
Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...














































Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Have B&W and High Contrast loaded in 2 cameras you have on hand and let your editor decide.  Possibly throw a palm log at them, they will have hope that your trying to save them and then they realize it sinks, That would make for some really good photos.  lol

classic black and white.
i love the look of a good black and white picture.

Mike has no taste in food, but he's right on time with the visual art stuff.
