Right, you'd obviously want a 400 ISO and a small aperture.  Depending on the
lighting of course.  You'd *want* to use 200, but as far as I know, it's
relatively dark during a hurricane.  The trick is to get a sharp focus of 'w',
soft focus of everything else with just a hint of movement... either 1/125 or
1/250 depending on how much he's flailing.

A high contrast colour is probobly a bad choice since it doesn't digitize as
well.  Besides, in todays world, you vary the contrast in the printing, not in
the film.

If you *did* manage to get it onto 200 ISO, it would still make a pretty crisp
black and white print.
