The BUSH Test

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 destructive 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 carried 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 wash 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.

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

 

In digital.

If you use a digital camera you don't have to worry about this.
More over you could easily post it in this forum for all to admire.

 

Colour film, transparency, if possible medium format. Comands higher price.

can i swap the camera for a gun?

 

Could we draft in some sharks on the shoot?

 

High quality digital - b&w/colour film might get nailed by the water, but digital should have a higher rate of survival. Note the photographer who died in the WTC attacks - his film cameras were split open and the films ruined, but the digital cards were unharmed and useable...

 

Dom, have you a link to them?

I remember someone posting them a while back.

 

I don't actually - I think there might be a reference somewhere on the Naim forum - that's where I originally saw them...

I can't even remember the guy's name - but the images he had were pretty impressive.
