It is certain, wu's is the best possible place to showcase "Feet as Art", as with any other presentation of feet - and not just the best place in the net, but specifically, the best place among (any) other foot forums.

I concur, they are the most aesthetically pleasing part of the body, and also the most expressive. It does (of course) occur to me that my bias may drive as much of this idea as reality itself - but, as has been pointed out by others, there are plenty of non "fetishists" who are able to see and appreciate this, as well.

I spent about an hour setting up the lighting for the first, third and fifth photographs; my original plan was to use one key light, one fill light and a tiny slave flash hidden behind the feet, as a halo light. Eventually I ended up pointing the halo light straight up into a reflector (rather than toward the back of the feet) - and bouncing it back down on the feet from above. I diffused it quite a bit and experimented with it's return angle until I could get it to highlight along the blade of her foot and ankle (poor footgirl!).

It absolutely and genuinely is the love for Feet as a primary motivating factor; it's the love for feet, and the life that goes with it. I also love the fact there are so many like-minded people with whom to share the stories, photographs and experiences.

I just have to thank you again for this thread Ben. I'll be visiting this baby daily for the rest of my days. What a wonderful presentation of devine feminine beauty you've put on display here. I'd like to get that third picture like blown up right huge and framed to hang above my bed or in my living room or something.

It looks like you and I are on the same wavelength. I've actually begun the process of getting one of the photos from that shoot printed on a 24" X 36" textured canvas, which I'll mount on a deep burgundy wall in my (dimly-lit) media room - highlighted by a ceiling-mounted track light.

You are right, and that is why I really appreciate girls who spend the extra time and administer the painstaking care to make their feet presentable and keep them beautiful; the attention-to-detail they display in accentuating that beauty with toe rings, anklets and nail art.
