Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Only 4,000 of these Stinson L-5 single engine, fixed-wing aircraft were built for use during World War II. Without any protection of armor or weapons, they flew a wide variety of dangerous missions. Search and rescue, photo reconnaissance, artillery spotters and air ambulance just to name a few. This slow flying airplane named the Carin' Belle could take off and land in a short distance, plus a side of the fuselage would open into a space just big enough for one stretcher carrying a wounded soldier. To the men on the ground in need of help, they were known as an Angel of Mercy being flown to them by a very brave ... Sky Pilot.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
