Are You Honest?

[Blue Rat]

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 a 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 furor.


THE TEST:
Suddenly you see a woman in the water. She is fighting for her life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.

You move closer.

Somehow the woman looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's Hillary Clinton!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take her under forever.

You have two options:

You can save the life of Hillary Clinton, or - - - you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful and brilliant women.


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?

Sorry your question is pointless, we are all shooting Digital not film

I might be the last person on the planet not to have a digital camera ...

However, I heard from a reliable source that my parents are buying me one as a retirement gift this May.

Like bowing out gracefully and giving up on trying to get out from under the shadow of her husband?

[granny ring]

"one of the world's most powerful and brilliant women:"

Obviously a joke.
But I would save her just for the possible bennies.

[brownlandshark]

I'd save her. Human life (arguably) over fortune.

First I would pray that Obama was with her!!

I would go with the high contrast and then change it to B & W in photoshop to see what looked better!!

I think I would jump in the water with my waterproof digi camera...I'm a pretty strong swimmer. HAHA

[RacinJason]

She would be out of luck because I don't swim to save my own life. If I could hook her with a large stick or something. I am sure i would save her.
And I would use digital for sure.

[faded1004]

break out the l series telephoto and get a full raw image of the tear coming out of her eye! as i jump into the water... cause you know l series and nice camera means all weather proof! like the guy who sits in the swamp to take pics... (i think most canon people will have seen the pic i am imagining...)

as a digital camera owner, i do want to get a film camera again...

[Trizz]

well if she did get out, she would take money from our children raise taxes and build a dam that would screw up the tides and cause more global warming.

[dirtmistress]

I done heerd she be a coogar!

[Tedroy]

...that Barack will be Potus! I can dig it!

[danophoto]

Kodak Tri-X bw film (Pulitzer here I come!)

[HUGH]

Who is Hillary Clinton

HUGH

But in this case you can have both, save a life and perhaps some fortune as well.

I would grab the Nikonos and shoot from beneath the surface to capture the fading last moments.

There is something classic about sticking with film though. Then again, it's my whole issue with people being disconnected with film versus digital or how much people use the internet rather than having a true social gathering.
