One Question Test :
One Question Test :
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 in this unlikely, fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.
Remember that your answer needs to be honest, and spontaneous.
Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
THE SITUATION
You are in New Orleans, There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.
You're a photo journalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
You're trying to shoot career-making photos.
There are houses and people swirling around you, and disappearing under the water.
THE TEST
Suddenly you see a man in the water.
He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.
You move closer.
Somehow the man looks familiar.
You suddenly realize who it is.
It's Rev. Al Sharpton.
At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.
You have two options- you can save the life of the "Reverend", or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most famous men.
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?

Re: One Question Test :
Haha,,, high contrast color film for me with a good telephoto lense. Don't want there to be any question of the identity of the 'victim'.

Re: One Question Test :
I think black and white would give it a more artistic feel.

Re: One Question Test :
I would try to save any one who was drowning. But if I also could not swim then I would use hight contrast color

Re: One Question Test :
I'd have to go with the black and white. It tends to pick up all the details better and makes for a more powerful image.

Re: One Question Test :
Definitely the black and white.....but at least two rolls. I want to staple them together and flicker through them at night like an old-time movie. When I really need a boost in morale, I'd flicker backwards and forwards ( put 'im down bring 'im up ) just for ha-ha's
