Liberty Belle B-17 Down ~ Lost a piece of American History Today

Being married to a pilot, especially one that loves old war planes, this is such a sad event. Today one of the few remaining B-17's in the world, Liberty Belle made an emergency landing and then was destroyed by a fire. The crew did a great job landing and thankfully made it back on the ground safely. However, America lost a little piece of history when the Liberty Belle went down.

Guthrie's Beautiful Saint Mary's Catholic Church by Shelly Perkins Photography

When returning home from a trip to Stillwater, I decided to take a drive through historical old town Guthrie. I love shooting photos in Guthrie. It's a beautiful town and some of the nicest people live there. Well, if you don't know me, I will have to tell you, I am always drawn to churches and temples. Wherever I go, I always find a church to stop in or shoot a photo of. I found the gorgeous traditional brick Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Guthrie. The sky was beautiful, only a few clouds in sight and I knew I had to make an image of St. Mary's. I hope you enjoy the image of the church. If you ever are driving through Oklahoma, pull off of I-35 and take a drive through Oklahoma's first capitol. You will not be disappointed.

I have had the privilege of taking these boys' photos on more than one occassion and I must say, they are always a lot of fun. You never know what expressions you will get and where they may run off to next. I hope you enjoy the photos.
