Richard James: 'When we have big tides in Guernsey, it's a favourite pastime of teenagers to jump from the sea wall into the water as it breaks against it. The sun was just going down when I came across this bunch and was able to get a high vantage point from which to photograph them, giving an interesting perspective' Photograph: Richard James
