Dilema: Are you a traditionalist, or a techno-buff? One simple question.
Advertisements [?]
I got this from a friend in my morning email - thought provoking yet not without a sense of irony and humor.

This test has only 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.


You are in Miami, Florida. 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 fury.

Suddenly you see a man floundering 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 George W. Bush! ... 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 George W. Bush. Or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer-Prize
winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful
men.

So here's the question, and please give an honest answer:.....





Would you select a digital slr, or high-contrast color film, or would you go with the classic
simplicity of black and white?
