My Grandfather is suffering from Alzheimer's. My Grandmother and Grandfather have been married for 40 years and she loves him very much, but she couldn't handle him any longer. He would wander about never knowing where he was or sometimes even who he was. She took him to a nursing home.At the nursing home, while Grandma was filling out paperwork, a nurse had Grandpa sit in a chair. Suddenly Grandpa starting slowly leaning to his left. The nurse ran over and put a pillow on his left side to prop him up. A few minutes later, he started leaning to his right. Again, the nurse ran over and put a pillow on his right side. Then he starting leaning forward. This time, the nurse strapped him into the chair. About this time, Grandma, having completed the paperwork, walked up to Grandpa and asked, "How do you like the place?"
"It's okay, I guess" he said. "But, they won't let me fart!"

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 would you use?
