Think carefully before you answer this question!!
I have a moral question for you. This is an imaginary situation, but I
think it is fun to decide what one would do.

The situation: You are in the Middle East, and there is a huge flood in
progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised and
structures destroyed.

Let's say that you're a photographer and getting still photos for a news
service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes.
You come across Osama Bin Laden who has been swept away by the
floodwaters.

He is barely hanging on to a tree limb and is about to go under.
You can either put down your camera and save him, or take a Pulitzer
Prize
winning photograph of him as he loses his grip on the limb.

So, here's the question and think carefully before you answer the
question
below:

Which lens and shutter speed would you use? ;)

2000 ISO at maximum aperture.

I think if I was there, I would try and save him, but I would also hand his ass over to Bush, to realise the destruction he caused to others.

This question made me laugh!

Don't have an answer for you though, maybe I will some day!

There is a saying in Chinese "Kin Sei Pat Gau" directly "See death refuse help".

It is a very difficult thing to do, and I cant do it.

Prana, don't be disappointed about that inability.

Force him to shave his beard maybe?

I think I would save him.

He might live if you let him get sucked up with the flood.. And besides, he'd be a much more valuable hostage for the US.

That's funny but in all seriousness, avoid rather than check, check rather than mame, mame rather than kill for all life is precious and none can be replaced, even our enemies, but it's still a funny joke. :D

Attack me and I'll kill you.
