A visit to the Silbury Hill formation...
 
Last weekend we took a visit to the Silbury Hill formation and thought you would like to see some pictures. Karen has also started to draw some of the circles from this year and we thought we'd show you her progress...
 
 
From the air...
 
The young barley crop had recovered greatly even
after only a few days ...
 
 
 
 
 
The formation offered great views of Silbury Hill
 
 
 
Support the Farmers...
 
We would both like to thank the farmer for allowing access to this circle.  This farmer has been supported by the CROP CIRCLE ACCESS PASS project which raises money to help compensate farmers for the loss of their crops when a circle appears. You can donate to the Crowd Funding Campaign for farmers by clicking on the image below. Helping to compensate farmers will help foster better access to the circles and will hopefully stop the amount of circles that are cut out by farmers concerned about further damage to their fields. This a really important project that has been backed by the National Farmers Union, Visit Wiltshire, Devizes Museum, the local member of parliament for Devizes and by many in the crop circle community. It's vital that we support farmers if we want to be able to continue to visit the circles and to photograph them. Last year we missed photographing several formations because they were cut out - so please help if you can. Even the smallest amounts helps. If we can't get this project to work many more crop circles could be lost in the future.

Latest Drawings...
 
East Field 2013 - This circle was the first of the 2013 season in the UK. Note how squares constrain the proportions and how the size of the four small satellite circles are also integral to the design. This shows wonderful geometric awareness and the beauty of working within an overall framework. Here all the geometry is linked together in a way that is beyond just the design itself.
 
 
 
I chose opposing colours to reflect the dual nature of this design.

Here is phase two of the Stanton St. Bernard formation. Some have seen Templar links to this design. The floor lay inside was rather interesting...

About Us:
Steve Alexander has been photographing the crop circles for twenty years. During that time he and Karen have provided a important service to the crop circle world by supplying professional quality photographic imagery of the circles to researchers, the media and the general public.
 
Since 1999 they have produced an annual Year Book showcasing the very best formations of each year along with a written commentary researched by Karen Alexander. The Crop Circle Year Book books are beautifully produced and they contain some of the best crop circle photography you will find anywhere. They are self-published, in small numbers and are not widely available, many consider them to be the most important crop circle documents available.
