A charming cross-generational photo as a former decapitator poses with his granddaughter. INDIA: FASCINATING portraits have captured the few remaining headhunters of a remote Indian tribe. Striking images showed elderly Konyak Naga men posing with spears and machetes that they once used to hunt the heads of their enemies. Another picture featured two men in traditional attire posing with a young girl. The photos are courtesy of photographer, Carlo Marrazza (62), from Brindisi, Italy, who used Leica cameras for the shoot. The snaps were taken across the villages Longwa and Hongphoi, in Nagaland, India. The Konyak Naga used to collect their enemies? skulls to show loyalty to their village, but the last trophy hunt was conducted in the 1960s. @carlomarrazza
