Umjetnik u svakom od nas - Virtual Reward 2.0
************************************

Ovaj virtualni cache odvesti će Vas u prelijepi park Vladimir Nazor u Rijeci i dati Vam jedan specifični zadatak.
Pročitajmo prvo nešto o parku.
Kako je nastao park? Krajem XIX. stoljeća, brat austrougarskog cara i kralja Franje Josipa, nadvojvoda Josip, kupuje od ondašnjeg gradonačelnika Ciotte vilu i park, nedaleko Guvernerove palače i u blizini izvora vode Lešnjak.
U XIX. stoljeću došlo je do velikog zanimanja za uzgoj egzotičnog bilja u svim krajevima Europe. U Rijeci je velike zasluge za aklimatizaciju egzotičnog bilja imao upravo nadvojvoda Josip, strasni botaničar, koji je bio u mogućnosti da preko naših pomorskih veza južnim morima dopremi brodovima najrazličitije primjerke biljaka. Tako je uredio prekrasan botanički vrt oko svoje vile na širokom prostoru od Ulice Žrtava fašizma do ispod Belvedera.
Nadvojvoda je na dnu svog imanja izgradio posebnu zgradu za crpku kojom je iz izvora Lešnjak crpio vodu za bazene u parku i za zalijevanje cijelog kompleksa.
Nakon smrti nadvojvode Josipa park se rasparcelirao, izgrađena je nova cesta Vladmir Nazor (jedan od najvećih hrvatskih pisaca i pjesnika po kojem i park dobiva naziv), a od bogatog botaničkog vrta ostali su nakon toga samo bijedni ostaci.
No 2005. godine u parku se otvara botanički vrt Prirodoslovnog muzeja Rijeka te park opet dobiva svoju izvornu namjenu i ljepotu.

ZADATAK:
Vaš zadatak kojim možete ostvariti log jest da se udobno smjestite bilo gdje u parku te probudite skrivenog kreativca u sebi ili upogonite onog postojećeg. ;)
Za to će Vam trebati papir i po želji - olovka, drvene bojice, akvarel, flomasteri, pasteli ... bilo koja likovna tehnika. U slučaju da Vam treba voda imate špinu u parku.
Odaberite motiv po želji, nacrtajte ga ili naslikajte, a nakon toga ga fotografirajte, s time da jedna fotografija bude samo rad, a na drugoj da se jasno vidi da ste to Vi sa radom na datoj lokaciji (ne morate slikati lice ako ne želite). Svaki uradak dobar je uradak, nemojte se sramiti. ;) Fotografije umetnite u log. Ako iz nekog razloga ne možete staviti dvije fotografije stavite onu na kojoj ste vi a drugu mi pošaljite porukom.
Nakon crtanja/slikanja preporučam pogledati Prirodoslovni muzej Rijeka, koji je u samoj blizini, ulaznica je simbolična.

ENGLISH

This virtual cache will take you to the beautiful park of Vladimir Nazor in Rijeka and give you one specific task.
Let's first say something about the park.
How did the park come from?
At the end of the 19th century, the brother of Austro-Hungarian emperor and king Francis Josip, archduke Joseph, buys from the mayor Ciotti villa and park, not far from the Governor's Palace and near the Lešnjak spring source.
In the 19th century there was a great interest in the cultivation of exotic plants in all parts of Europe. Great credit for the acclimatization of exotic plants in Rijeka had just archduke Joseph, a passionate botanist, who was able to get the most varied plant specimens through our naval connections to the southern seas. Thus he has edited a beautiful botanical garden around his villa on a wide area from the Victory of Fascism Street to under Belvedere. The emperor built a special building for the pump on the bottom of his estate, from which he poured water from the Lešnjak spring for pools in the park and for watering the entire complex.
After the death of archduke Josip the park was parceled out, a new road Vladimir Nazor (one of the greatest Croatian writers and poets ) was built, for which the park was named, and then the rich botanical gardens remained only miserable remains.
However, in 2005, Rijeka Natural History Museum opens botanic garden in the park, and the park again gets its original purpose and beauty.

TASK:
Your task with which you can make a log is to sit comfortably anywhere in the park and wake up a hidden creator in yourself or engage existing one. ;)
For this you will need paper and, if desired, pencil, crayons, watercolor, flomasters, pastels ... any art technique. In case you need water you have a fountain in the park.
Select a motive as desired, draw it or paint it, then photograph your work, so that one photo is just a drawing/painting, and on the other it is clear that you are at the location with your work (you do not have to photograph a face if you do not want it).
Every work is a good work, do not be ashamed. ;)
Insert the photos in your log. If for some reason you could not publish two photos, publish one with you and your work and other send me in message. Thanks!
After drawing/painting, I recommend to take a visit at the Natural History Museum of Rijeka, which is close by, and the ticket price is symbolic.
