A Dilemma

« on: June 27, 2006, 10:37:04 AM »

By giving an honest answer you will be able to test where you stand morally. The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation, where you will have to make a decision one way or the other.

Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Consider each line - this is important for the test to work accurately.

There is great chaos going on around you, caused by a hurricane and severe floods. There are huge masses of water all over you . . . You are a well respected Sunday Newspaper Photographer and you are in the middle of this great disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot very impressive photos. There are houses and people floating around you, disappearing into the water. Nature is showing all its destructive power and is ripping everything away with it.

Suddenly you see a man in the water; he is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken away by the masses of water and mud. You move closer, the man looks familiar.

Suddenly you know who it is - it's Sir Alex Ferguson. At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him away. . . forever. You have two options. You can save him or you can take the best photo of your life. You can save the life of Sir Alex Ferguson, or you can shoot a Pulitzer Prize winning photo. A unique photo displaying the last moments of the Premierships most successful manager in the last 14 years.

And here's the question: (Please give an honest answer).......

Would you select Kodak colour film (ISO 400), or go with the simplicity of classic black and white?

I'll save Sir Alex on the proviso that he comes back to Aberdeen.

He is a knight of the realm, it'll be hard for him in the water with all that armour.

To be honest - if you're a News of the World photographer you should throw yourself in

A NOTW photographer - and I know one - would have pushed him in earlier.
