I have to agree with your assessment of the public nudity videos on the site. I had a hard time finding them and then I found them very tame as well as boring.

Ah, I visit this page at least twice a week, but I finally got myself an account to post here.
Take note Rearadmiral that the public stuff is as risky as it gets, there are no arrangements with resort owners, and with security cameras being added to virtually every location, its getting more and more difficult to pull it off safely. I challenge you to find a US BASED site that comes close to the risk & volume of public nudity -- sure it cannot compete with EU sites where the girl walks naked to a cafe in Budapest, but try it in the US, and might as well have the site shut down.
I make it look easy; almost every shoot has some significant risk involved. I think the best way to put it -- I trained a few photographers to shoot public stuff here, and nearly half the time they ended up getting in trouble with the law. With the combination of instinct and luck I've been able to get away with what I have for so long.
I wish the pornusers would see the site not for individual niches, like public, feet, fisting etc... but as a comprehensive site that covers all interests, puts it all in one large 'adventure' update, instead of splitting it up into several small updates giving you the ILLUSION of having a lot of updates/week.

Thanks for clarifying that a key assumption that I made was wrong, namely that the public nudity on your site is ‘staged’ in that you have some arrangements with a resort. I made that assumption based on the large number of nude outdoor scenes made there, and that was an incorrect assumption. My apologies for making the incorrect assumption and I’ve edited my review to remove that.
I will say that now knowing that you don’t ‘cheat’ with the public stuff I’ve got a better appreciation of your site. I understand that given the current political and religious climate in the U.S. that any public nudity involves a lot of personal risk for the models and the staff. I agree with you that the EU sites have the ability to appear to push the envelope a lot more, but knowing that it isn’t really pushing the envelope due to the more liberal views of sexuality in the EU takes away a lot of the excitement found in viewing an American site. Now knowing that you don’t ‘stage’ or pre-arrange the public stuff raises it to a whole different level.
While I understand your dismay in having just one facet of your site reviewed, I tried to make it very clear that my review was only for someone looking at it from that perspective. I really liked your site – the models are stunning and you present them in ways that really show them off well. I give you full credit for that. My intention though, was to get the message out to others who may be like me: having no real interest in solo girl sites, but liking public nudity. I think that anyone who reads my review and wants public nudity will be more apt to consider a membership knowing that there is both quantity and quality.
Thanks for taking the time to correct my review. Having this kind of interaction between customers and webmasters is one of the key reasons that this site is so popular.

Truth be told RearAdmiral, that its becoming rather nasty nowadays, with every street corner, niche in a mall, park, resort, etc... being 'watched' with security cameras. Thank vandals & theives for the propagation of these devices. Though one specific resort actually installed security cameras around my favorite shoot locales because of me lol.

Rob,
I've often wondered about the proliferation of security cameras everywhere and the effect of that proliferation on your work.
Having been in the retail biz where cctv's are used extensively for shortage control and cash handling control, visible and obvious dummy cameras are used as "decoys" and hi-res "pinhole" cameras that are virtually undetectable to most shoplifters are the ones that are taped and are used as evidence.
I suspect that, because your work is, by and large, "no harm/no foul" in the sense that the venue's management suffers no direct loss, your efforts are observed by far more security people who do not do anything at all (other than, perhaps, get off on what they are watching) than those who do something because they don't want to upset granny when a babe shows what she's made of and granny happens to see the show.
That, to me, is a part of the appeal of your site; that it is a sort of "forbidden fruit."
Thanks for your unique efforts and for making me long to be visiting a Phoenix area resort at the same time as you are doing a shoot.
