I just got my new digital camera, so my pix are not best. Are they too big, dim, bright, too much flash? What kind of angles? Any suggestions welcome. And I don't have Oriental rug, what's your recommendation? Chinese, Persian, Indian?

I am going to follow Mussel's suggestion to put all pictures in one thread. It's easier for everyone to look at pictures in one thread. Please feel to post your own shoe p0rn here.

So making my shoe p0rn debut, JL Bordor in tobacco:

Shoes = A+ really nice split-toe, great shape. I am jealous.

Flooring = C+ monotone background, not enough texture. Not so jealous.

I love these shoes

I'm a big fan of long split stitch (I have no idea how this is called...

) on split toes. I have a pair of JL Norwich (norwegians as one can guess...) with the same stitching pattern, and they look great on the foot

Beautiful VR! I also am a big fan of the long split and the tobacco is the perfect color for these.

While not a fan of split toes, those are nice. Great colour!

Maybe when I get something to the level of the shoes shown here I will post something also (on a carpet with discarded parrot food nonetheless!)

Thanks all for the compliments.

Andrew, I agree. Me also like a short apron with a long split, that makes the shoes more sleek.

LOL. Didn't you read the title, it couldn't be clearer, it's literally about shoe Appreciation.
