What is Fine Art Photography?

Recently, I came across the Fine Art Photography entry on Wikipedia. What it says is:

Quote:
"Fine art photography refers to photographs that are created to fulfill the creative vision of the artist. Fine art photography stands in contrast to photojournalism and commercial photography. Photojournalism provides visual support for stories, mainly in the print media. Commercial photography's main focus is to sell a product or service."
Now, I know that I am talking about art and that it is down to your own personal opinion (as well as semantics) but, according to that definition, am I a fine art photographer? I don't do it for journalistic or commerical purposes.

What do you think?
