This image is from the Princeton University campus in Princeton, New Jersey. The architects certainly went arch-happy in their construction! There must literally be dozens of arches on that campus, incorporated into a wide variety of structures.
You can view Delicate Arch from upper viewing point, which is about a half mile hike up a hill. Well worth the climb, especially if you're unable to make it up to Delicate Arch itself. The arch is one of the main and most popular of the attractions at this park. The rangers allow you to walk onto the slickrock as long as you do not walk on non-rock surfaces. Sun down time, ended onto a plateau where the arch appeared almost like a vision on top of the cliffs, the deep cliffs under my foot…
I posted a photo yesterday, this one is in a bit different view, you can see the tiny Delicate Arch far away in the meddle of the photo… Most people ended up at viewpoint, could not see this view, it took a bit effort to climb to this location, few people did it, you can see three people sitting and waiting for the sunset on the edge of cliffs... Not long after taking this photo, it started raining, no real sunset...
This is the final photo I plan to post of Mission San Jose in San Antonio, Texas. The architects apparently loved arches. The bushes and flowers in this photo were in what appeared to be a courtyard area.
Got dizzy taking this capture looking overhead while balancing at a 45 degrees angle on the rocks below the one arch.
