Imke jumping over the Atlantic at Carraig Chomain, Isle of Islay

A walk out on Kilchoman beach on a cloudy June morning. As it was a very low tide we were able to walk out below Carraig Chomain, arguably on the bottom of the Atlantic. On the return leg the tide started to come in, so my sister had to jump of a tiny arm of the Atlantic.
