Villager disrupts nude photo shoot
A naked photo shoot in China was disrupted when an outraged local villager began attacking photographers.
The 20-year-old model and more than 10 photographers descended on the Shenxiandong Forestry Park in central China's Henan province to shoot a series of arty nude pictures.
They were accidentally discovered by a local villager who quickly informed other residents to come and look.
Unsurprisingly it wasn't long before a group of male 'art' lovers had gathered at the scene to watch.
However, their wives were not so appreciative and were quick to scold their errant husbands and send them home.
Then several hours into the photo shoot a local pensioner, armed with a tree branch, made his disapproval clear when he attacked the photographers.
The man, Shen Guoxian, 60, said: "These people are here to shoot naked pictures, which is too dirty and polluting to the environment. It damaged the family bonds in the village."
However, one of the photographers involved complained that the villagers were "too narrow-minded".
Another added: "Body art is a high-end art. The human body is the most beautiful work of mother nature."
Park manager Wu Guangwei said: "They, as tourists, have bought tickets and have the right to take pictures. It's hard to us to balance the two ends; the villagers and the artists

Billionaire 'Gaga' for pop star
A Russian billionaire reportedly paid Lady Gaga a million dollars for a fleeting bit part in her new video.
The mega-wealthy businessman - identified only as Arkady by Moscow's Life.ru news website - appears wearing an SS-style leather coat and cap in the scene in Alejandro, Lady Gaga's new single.
"Yes it was me in the clip but I can't give further details," he told the news organisation.
During the scene Arkady is seen staring moodily at Lady Gaga before hurling off his cap and moving in to get closer to her.
The Russian was described by the news website as Lady Gaga's "biggest fan".
In the report Lady Gaga's management reportedly praised the Russian man's acting skills even though he did not have a professional modelling or acting background.
They said the shooting took place in Thailand and the 30-year-old Russian had performed flawlessly.
The 30-year-old added: "I was pleased with how it turned out - maybe I am in the wrong job

Gruesome find for airport workers
Airport workers who noticed a package was not labelled properly were shocked to discover a shipment of 40 to 60 human heads.
Employees at Southwest Airlines discovered the clumsily duct-taped containers of heads in Little Rock, Arkansas.
After they reported their grim discovery to police, the heads were turned over to the local coroner, reports the Daily Telegraph.
Further investigation revealed the heads were being shipped to be used by neurosurgeons to study ear, nose and throat procedures.
Pulaski County Coroner Garland Camper said: "They were basically in plastic containers with lids that are not air sealed.
"They were duct taped with minimal information to disclose what was inside."
The heads were on their way to medical company Medtronic Inc in Fort Worth, Texas, which had ordered them for research.
A company spokesman said it was not uncommon for heads used for research to be shipped commercially, adding: "It's a common practice. This is a very uncommon result."
