53 Photos of Soft vs. Hard in Venezuela

What would dozens of hair-like butterfly feet feel like on your spine and flanks? What does luxurious lace feel like as it slithers over your goose bumps? Can you feel the pulse of blood and testosterone in your arms and fists as you punch your opponent? Fernando Bracho Bracho seems to want us to consider these journeys of sensuality in his photos of men.
