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."
