With all your honor and dignity what would you do?

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 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.


Please scroll down slowly and consider each line - this is important for the test to work accurately.


You're in Florida...In Miami, to be exact... 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 CNN 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 destroying 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. Somehow the man looks familiar.


Suddenly you know who it is - it's George W. Bush!


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.


So you can save the life of George W. Bush, or you can shoot a Pulitzer prize winning photo. A unique photo displaying the death of one of the world's most powerful men.


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


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

I would take the pic in color. I am not fond of bush and what he has done in his term. That is the biggest reason.

Second, i bet Pulitzer prize winners get lots of hot women!

Definitely colour, i find that B&W pictures don't capture the true emotion

Even before the million dollar question came up, I envisioned taking a classic B&W shot of him...odd how that all works.

B&W it would be.

I find B&W prints have a certain emotional feel to them that colour can't reproduce.

I'd take a colour shot. So everybody could see the fear and reflection of me laughing, in his eyes.

some of the greatest pictures of all time are in B&W...I don't see why this one should be any different
