Well sir.. frankly speaking, I have been taking pics & vids of barefoot beauties for over 10 years.. you will maybe concede that it is a period long enough for me to develop MY OWN STYLE in videomaking..
I see no point in imitating what Hal and Paul do (rather well, I'd say).. plus (being mainly a photographer) I am not a fan of "chasing the model" scenes in videos.. frankly speaking, they make me feel seasick..
I would also observe that the longest "barefooting videos" by Hal are sold in his clips4sale store.. NOT uploaded to the member area of his site.. differently from what happens at my BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS site, where ALL VIDEO FOOTAGE is AVAILABLE TO SUBSCRIBERS..
This said, if you still think that over 5,000 pics and over 2 hours of video footage at BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS are worth a mere 11.95 bucks per month.. I'll be ultra-glad to have you again among my subscribers..

Lol, Thank you

Well as I expected, Red-X may have a slight advantage as she is also known for her nudity work, which is maybe why a few have swung her way in the voting - Not that she isn't completely deserving of getting high votes!

You are the second one with good forecasting skills here, amico!
Many thanks indeed for publicly stating here your satisfaction as subscriber to BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS!

My experience here in the forum would suggest that nude modelling is NOT an advantage for a girl.. it can well be the contrary with a good number of forum members, who show no enthusiasm at all for barefooters who also expose more.. intimate body parts
Indeed very few members, always the same ones, and most of them subscribers to the site, comment my posts about BAREFOOT NUDITY updates/models.
Even when I feature world-famous 24/7/365 barefooters like CECILIA, or popular Toes-In-Action models like JANINA, KIRA, SHEILA, LO (who have posed naked for the first time for my site.. only BAREFOOT NUDITY has nude stuff featuring TIA girls), they get little if any attention here in the forum.

Irrespective of the final result of this contest, I am already surprised that RED-X got so many votes, as she is not only an erotic model (with even some hardcore girl-girl and boy-girl photosets and videos in her portfolio), but also a professional escort (which to many people here in the forum probably equates to being simply a "whore").
The fact that RED-X is also a TRUE 24/7/365 barefooter (differently from the "celebrated" hippie-style German barefooters, who are wearing shoes and socks at present.. and Switzerland - where RED-X now lives - is in no way less chilly than Germany in winter) might have helped her in winning some additional votes.

Let me be outspoken: I think that many forum members (especially subscribers to City Feet and Toes-In-Action) do NOT like BAREFOOT NUDITY models, and do NOT like ME as a person (even if they may respect me as a footographer). They probably see me as an "heretic", because I have dared to go beyond barefooting and dirty soles, showing explicit nudity and overtly sexual acts at BAREFOOT NUDITY. In other words, I have "corrupted" former "decent barefooters", turning them into "barefooting porn models"..

The fact is.. I have always been a maverick, I have always loved to sing out of tune.. eating out my liver to play Mr. Nice and make money has never been my favorite activity.
I don't need to earn a living on my sites, I run them out of pure passion.. so they have to be the way I like them to be.. so the message is.. "if you are on my side.. welcome aboard"..

Dear Feetosopher, I think that the reason for which I like Red-X is the reason for which other people here in this forum do not like her.
I have joined Barefoot Nudity because I like bare feet, but I like also tits, pussy, ass... like the majority of men! For a man like me, Barefoot Nudity is the best website in the world. There are many websites with clothed barefoot girls, but barefoot naked girls doing dirty things are much more exciting! Sites with clothed barefoot girls are boring for me: I will not pay money to see clothed girls!
I hope that you never stop Barefoot Nudity, dear Feetosopher! Ciao!

Don't get me wrong when I say that RED-X has an advantage because of her naked work, it's just whn comments like "I vote for Red-X because she also poses naked for Barefoot Nudity" show up it does suggest it slightly!

I personally have no problem at all with any of RED-X's professional roles, in fact you've got me quite curious with the mention of "hardcore girl-girl" . I'm not sure that I'd say you were turning any of the models into "barefooting porn models", after all, it's their decission to do the photo shoot - That being said, as much as I like naked women and love the concept of your site crossing this with public barefooting, I have to say that some elements are not entirely to my taste - But that's not to say everyone is the same.

@nudescalze said that "I have joined Barefoot Nudity because I like bare feet, but I like also tits, pussy, ass", which I'm sure is true of a lot of men who are wanting to join an Adult/Fetish website, however when I look at sites like City Feet, T-I-A and your Urban site, I view the shoots/videos as being more Glamour than even what you'd call Foot Fetish. I have always seen a woman in bare feet as being very glamorous/elegant and the sites I mentioned above capture that beautifully. the vision of a well dressed woman and bare feet will win me over every time.

Anyway to get back to the question at hand, as you know I kind of predicted that it would be closer between Swains/RED-X and I do still personally hope that Swains wins because for my she so perfectly captures that elegance that I spoke of in every single photo shoot. RED-X is a great model and person who does a great job of interacting with her fans on her networks and I'm sure that she is going to do great in the Nudity vote. I also see that she's being noticed by other foot fetish websites which is brilliant!

I do have to sympathise with the other models who seem to be lagging behind a little in the votes - hopefully that will change slightly soon! These are all fantastic models and women who do an amazing job of satisfying our need to see bare feet in public - I deeply respect ALL of them!

As I do you (Hal, Paul and the many other photographers/participants out there) for finding and bringing them to us

@thefootpromoter: first and foremost.. many thanks for taking the time to write so articulated a comment. I am serious! I think that nobody here in the forum would bother to write so much about a post of mine. Many take the free pics I regularly post here for granted, and do not care at all about my rants..
I must confess that I tend to lose self-control when the debate "clothed vs. naked barefoot beauties" surfaces.. I had some blunt confrontations on the matter here.
I'd be tempted to write a long post on the topic but.. it deffo does not belong in this thread, which is about the FRESH URBAN FEET OF THE YEAR 2014 CONTEST.. so I am gonna have a good glass of Italian red wine.. relax.. and just say "many thanks for your kind comment, thefootpromoter.."

I take the occasion to remind that the CONTEST WILL END ON SATURDAY, JANUARY 17, AT MIDNIGHT.
The girl with the highest number of votes will be crowned FRESH URBAN FEET OF THE YEAR 2014, and will be featured in a SPECIAL 10-PICTURE PHOTOSET here in the forum.
So.. CAST YOUR VOTES!

You're welcome @Feetosopher - I never take the photo's that anyone posts for granted and I'm always happy to read the views / opinions of other members who take the time to post a comment! And I look forward to many more of your posts featuring those magnificent and beautiful barefoot girls

Many thanks again! And don't worry.. I will continue to post pics here in the forum.. until the admins will order me to quit doing so..

I declare the contest officially CLOSED.
The FRESH URBAN FEET OF THE YEAR 2014 belong to the gorgeous.. RED-X, who ranked first with 10 votes out of 21.
RED-X will be celebrated in a SPECIAL 10 PICTURE FREE FEATURE HERE IN THE FORUM!
Many thanks to all the forum members who took one minute to vote in the poll!

Congratulations to Red-X, long life to her as barefoot woman model

Yeah, long live RED-X!

Glad to see that no girl ended up with no votes, but the vote for ASYA arrived beyond the official deadline.
The poll is CLOSED, additional votes will NOT be considered.
