The Dilemma
This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. Please don't answer it without giving it some serious thought. 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 consider each line. Thoughtfulness is important for this evaluation to be meaningful! Ready?
Begin.
You're in Florida. In Miami, to be exact... There is chaos around you, caused by a hurricane and severe floods. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper caught in the middle of this great 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. You are witnessing Nature in all its destructive fury. You see a man in the water; he is fighting for his life, trying not to be swept away amidst the rolling water and debris. You try to get closer. Somehow the man looks familiar. Suddenly, you realize who it is...
It's George W. Bush!
At the same time you realize that the raging waters are about to take him under, forever. You have two options. You can put down your camera and try to rescue him or you can take the most dramatic photos of your career. So, you can save the life of George W. Bush, or you can shoot aPulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of the world's most powerful man. Now, here's the question (and please... give an honest answer):
Would you select color film, or go with the classic simplicity of black and white?
