This "micro modern Stonehenge" requires micro whooping! :) 17.8.2020. (2020-08-17) Monument made in honor of old Glagolitic alphabet - a kind of "micro modern Stonehenge" ;) of Krk Island, built in 2010 just at the entrance in 700 years old Gabonjin village (near cemetery). It is interesting presentation of Glagolitic alphabet. From official web-page (http://www.visitdobrinj.hr/en/sights/park-of-the-glagolitic-alphabet/): "The Park of the Glagolitic Alphabet (Park Glagoljice) in Gabonjin, opened in 2010, is part of the further efforts made by the citizens to ensure that the Glagolitic alphabet and the time from which it dates are preserved and promoted at the same time. The sixteen stone tablets making up the Park of the Glagolitic Alphabet are the reminders of the important moments from the local and national history as well as of the individuals that left their traces in the Glagolitic tradition. The main part of the job, from the concept to the execution, was carried out by, you guess, Svetko Ušalj." I noticed this installation on my last day on Krk and during driving of the island to my home - so I decided to stop and shoot only short flight over and through stones. But I was totally unprepared because I did not expect to see anything for whooping on the road - so I did not have charged batteries - only two on storage voltage so I used one to power DVR and second one to shot only one rather non-attractive acro session where you can't see much (lack of power did not allow me precise flight and some vertical shots from high above :((( )... But here it is - with some closeup images of carvings on a stones taken with my wife's mobile phone. Video is color corrected and stretched in some "superview"-like format with some simulated natural and FX sound effects instead of music (I experimented a bit - I am not very satisfied with result, but it is OK for the first time - please listen with earphones or speakers with good dynamic range and bass to hear entire mix properly).
