Ethics 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. 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 Florida, Miami to be specific. 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 pull him under. You have two options--you can save the life of
G.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 high contrast color film, or would you go with the
classic simplicity of black and white? _________________ "We are the Ones we have been waiting for."

I'd give the camera to someone else and have them shoot me pulling him out of the water.
Then, I would get the money shot.
Me pushing him back in.
I told you guys I would save the world one day.  _________________ www.shoutwire.com

I think that what matters more is how you frame the shot. I mean, do you just want to see his face encircled by brown waters, or do you want to see Mr. Hanky and other debris floating around too?

Mr. Hanky would add emotional depth, as well as a bit of scale and would help maximize the use of negative space.
