A rainbow of colour was created on Exmouth seafront after the town's first sponsored Colour Bomb event.

Participants ran, jogged and walked the 4k distance, taking them through a series of explosive colour bomb paint stations.
An accompanying 'family festival' was held at the Queen's Drive Space with live entertainment and music.
Sarah Shaw, the Deaf Academy's fundraising appeal manager, said: "This was the first time we have staged an event like this.

"The paint throwers did a great job - as demonstrated by the many people covered from head to toe in paint."
