Honoring Dr. King

Georgetown resident Lettie Hines, in the opening photo, was one of approximately 200 people who gathered for a special service commemorating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on Monday.   Ms. Hines was photographed at the conclusion of the program at Georgetown’s Macedonia Baptist Church as the crowd sang “Reach Out and Touch.”    Congregants gathered here after marching together from the Georgetown square.   I’ve photographed this national holiday event for the Williamson County Sun for three years now.    One little guy, 6-year-old Aiden Bradshaw, is usually there with his grandma, Helen Jones.   Since my camera has focused on him before, I tried to look elsewhere for my photos.   Near the service’s end, however, there was Aiden, leaning on his grandma’s shoulders, looking angelic.  Those eyes just draw me in.
