.Olympic Influence.

On Friday I was lucky enough to photograph the High Tide Aquatics swim club early in the morning and spend an exhilarating two hours shooting their practice at Northeast Pool underwater. Then scooting across town, I met up with the Florida Fencing Academy and tried my best to get close to the action and still walk out with both eyes and all four limbs still in tact. It was a great day to be a photojournalist in Gainesville. Brandon Kruse/The Gainesville Sun
