You are not a purist, then. You are one of those people who believe the
purpose of photography is to get the picture you want at the end of the
process as best you can, and that it does not matter how you use your
equipment to get it. Horrors. :)
A recent issue of Shutterbug had a an interesting interview with a
photographer an issue of so back, in which he was asked about his
cropping practice. He shoots 6x6 and doesn't print square, so he almost
always crops. I don't have the exact quote since I have given the
magazine away, but his words were to the effect that, "Sure I crop. When
I photograph I am cropping the world."
I always find the view that cropping is a horrible practice kind of
amusing.
