i've been dying to tell the story so here ya go, hope you enjoy. It helps the photo make more sense if you know the story :-)
The archways on The Green, which link Memorial Hall with Brown Lab on its left and Hullihen Hall on its right, are known as the "kissing arches." Between 1914 and 1945, The Green was actually home to two schools: Delaware College on the North Green and the Women's College on the South Green. Memorial Library, built in 1924, was the only building shared by both schools, and the arches served as a meeting and departure point for students at the two colleges. Even after the two schools merged, the south campus continued to serve as the home for female students for many years, and the archways are still known as the "kissing arches" today. |

It's always fun to know the story behind the things we see in pictures. After every challenge I always hope people have left some information about their pictures so you can find out more. So many people just have N/A in that spot instead of telling more.
I recognized this picture as yours - the people in it are the same as in the other picture you had posted in the forums. It is really a nice shot - fits the challenge perfectly and has some human interest as well! |

It's not that anyone doesn't care.. it's just that reading a story and enjoying it.. and commenting on something.. aren't always inclusive :)
Also, you had posted that quite early in the morning, so it probably wasn't viewed by as many as if you had posted it in the afternoon.
And, as you can see, your bump has generated the interest :)

Damn, you made me angry, how rude can you be!!! hahaha This was that I was going to say (for starters), but then I discovered it was you that started the thread, the same person, I thought that it was someone else answering you with a very rude comment! phew, I'm glad I did notice that in time.
btw, I read your story and I like it, it gives your photo more strength, thanks! :-)
