Thousands of tonnes of sand have been sculpted into 30 pieces of beach art on the sea front in Somerset.

An 8m (26ft) tall rocket is the centrepiece of this year's Weston Sand Sculpture Festival.

The annual event is usually based around a theme - this year's is "When I Grow Up", aimed at capturing residents' "childhood dream jobs".

They will also have 16 artists from overseas competing for the public vote in a championship event.

The Weston-super-Mare festival is in its 11th year and runs from the Easter weekend throughout the summer.

Co-organiser Nicola Wood said: "Almost anything is possible in the eyes of a child and we wanted to capture that mentality within this year's festival, which is now in its 11th year."
