These pictures were taken at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, a.k.a. "The Swamp", in Gainesville Florida on Saturday September 8th 2007.

The two college football teams playing against each other were the University of Florida Gators and the Troy State Trojans from Alabama.

I used a small compact Canon Powershot digital camera so I wasn't able to zoom in very far. Next time I plan on bringing my new Canon S5 IS which has a 12X optical zoom lens. That should help me get closer to the action happening on the football field.

Below are some of the best shots from the day that show the highly coordinated UF band members creating images and words on the field by all standing in the correct spots.
