PHOTO OF THE WEEK

-- Sean Hiller

Last Saturday was a downer. It was rainy, cold and all the sports

assignments I was scheduled to shoot were canceled. Luckily there was

this story in the works about a little girl -- Kyndall Long -- who became

a hero after alarming her parents of a fire at a neighbor’s house.

The photo could have gone either way. I really didn’t know what to

expect. But when I arrived, I was greeted by a great family. Everything

just clicked. Everyone was in on the photo shoot. Dad, mom, and a few of

Kyndall’s friends. The whole thing was a reminder of how great community

journalism can be.
