Hmm - is Cartier Bresson's 'Splashdown' more important to me than an x-ray of a broken leg? Yes, unless of course the broken leg is mine. I think most photographers who do this as a hobby (myself included) would be utterly astounded at the extent record photography is used - ensuring that critical machinery doesn't fail, photographing a supernova, recording crime scenes, etc. However, for me the creative side is still too important to relegate to second place, so I'm firmly attached to the fence.
