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.

Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
*** THE SITUATION: ***

You are in London.
There is chaos all around you caused by severe flooding.
This is a flood of biblical proportions.

You are a photo-journalist 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 into the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.


** 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 realise who it is…
It's the Muslim Cleric, Abu Hamza, the one-eyed,hook handed b*****d
who hates non-Muslims and wants the UK to become an Islamic State!!
You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

You have two options:

You can save the life of Abu,
or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo,
documenting the death of one of the country's most despised, evil and powerful men!


*** NOW THE QUESTION: ***

Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...

Would you select high contrast colour film,
or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Take the Picture's at the camera's best frame rate on continuos shooting and in RAW, and do what ever needs doing afterwards in photo shop for the Pulitzer.

I would not be able to photograph him as my foot would be on his head holding him down.

I would be unable to take a picture of such a scene I am human and have feeling to all men and women.

























































I would be micking myself so much I would be unable to hold the camera steady enough to get a good pic so would just sit there and enjoy the view
