Jaw-dropping images reveal an "alien craft" watching Brits sunbathe on a Devon beach, a UFO hunter claims.
John Mooner, a full-time UFO investigator, was taking a day off at Exmouth Beach when he spotted something strange. He said: "I walked along the beach, heading toward the harbour, and once I finally reached the end of the beach, I turned around to look back.
"I then spotted something rather unexpected - I just happened to see an anomalous object over by some trees and several hotels. I quickly took a photograph, successfully capturing the anomalous object, just before it disappeared or cloaked away from view."
John is in absolutely no doubt about what it was."
He continued: "This is quite incredible and shows how prevalent this alien phenomenon is around Devon. I was not UFO-spotting this particular day and I still witnessed and captured a real sphere alien craft." The strange presence hovering over Exmouth can be seen in John's photos, taken with a Nikon Coolpix L26 camera on Tuesday at around 6pm.
Mr Mooner, from Newton Abbot, thinks the craft was observing the beachgoers enjoying the sun. He said: "The object was sphere-shaped and metallic in nature, and there was a visible field around it.
"There was no form of visible propulsion and I watched it as it slowly glided through the air until it was directly above The Octagon, which is a shop that sells snacks and refreshments. I had a feeling that this large anomalous sphere was observing the people on the beach below."
It's not John's first out-of-this-world encounter. In June, he captured photos of something stalking the RAF's famous Red Arrows at Torbay Airshow - he called it "a non-human-controlled probe". Later that month, he photographed what he called an "alien flying saucer" over the Teign estuary.
He said: "Without a doubt that these crafts are either extra-terrestrial or extra-dimensional in origin. These crafts are not Russian or Chinese, they are clearly piloted by intelligent organic entities. They are clearly not of this Earth but are indeed from somewhere else."
