New Formations...
There has been a flurry of formation in the last couple of weeks as the 2014 season kicks into gear. We have two formations featured in this newsletter with more to come shortly. Formations have been reported in Southend, Essex | Besford, Worcestershire | Badbury, Dorset | Alton Barnes, Wiltshire and Popham, Hampshire. Just this morning a brand new circle at Silbury Hill in Wiltshire has been reported!
With all these circles appearing don't forget to support our flight fund - we really need your help!!!
Harewell Lane, nr Besford,
Worcestershire, UK.
Reported 14th June 2014
This fantastic five-fold circle appeared in Besford in Worcestershire, England. A pentagram and pentagon contained in a flattened circle. As we are dealing with pentagonal geometry, this formation will be full of phi ratios!
There is no access permitted to this formaton.
We hope you enjoy Steve's stunning photography!
All our work recording the crop circles is self-financed. The yearly cost of flights over the circles alone runs into many thousands of pounds. A one hour flight costs £300-£700.
The sale of our photographs, Year Books and other items via our on-line shop helps to offset some of that cost. With increasing overheads across the board of our activities it is becoming more and more difficult to find the finance we need to record the circles, so please browse our shop and think of us when buying gifts for friends and family.

With grateful thanks - Steve & Karen
Badbury Rings, nr Wimborne Minster
Dorset, UK.
Reported 17th June 2014
This wonderful formation occurred close to Badbury Rings in Dorset an well-known Earth Work. This very original design has been very popular with crop circle researchers and enthusiasts alike.
The Farmer is allowing access to visitors Paul Jacobs and CGI will be collecting money at the field-side, with half the money being donated to the local church for much needed repairs.
Please help us to continue to fly this season by...
A. Making a £10.00 donation to our flight fund.
B. Make a regular monthly donation throughout the summer months to help us to keep flying regularly and able to respond quickly to new formations.
The only way for us to keep sharing crop circle photographs this season, is for people help us by using our online shop and donating to our flight fund.
Very few people are recording the crop circles these days.
Please help if you can.

With grateful thanks - Steve & Karen
On the Drawing Board...
Karen has had both the Chilcomb formation and the new Harewell Hill circle on the drawing board this week...
NO MORE WAR
Drawing the spiral with compass and straight-edge is tricky - but this formation looks just as good in watercolour and ink and it did in the field.
Besford, Worcestershire.
This pencil sketch shows the basic geometry of the formation. As we are dealing with five-fold geometry this formation will be filled with lovely phi ratios!

From the Crop Circle Year Book 2008...
"The fields of the Wiltshire countryside sit like a gigantic patchwork quilt elegantly draped over the many hills and vales that comprise this ancient landscape. Its many hues and textures crisscrossed with blue satin ribbons of small streams and broader canals are an unforgettable sight to anyone lucky enough to have flown over this beautiful place. During the sultry summer months, the enigmatic circle-makers embroider this velveteen coverlet with enigmatic symbols, sometimes hundreds of feet in diameter. Each year thousands of visitors throng here to visit the temporary temples constructed in this enigmatic annual summer show. Like some great cultural festival, some come to discover, some to contemplate, some just to gawk. They walk, talk, amble and ramble their way along-by long-barrows, round-barrows and stone circles in search of an elusive glimpse of something mysterious. Then slowly, the golden blanket of ripe wheat begins to disappear, to be replaced by the familiar corduroy stripes left behind by herds of great labouring harvesters signalling that another year is over. This book takes you over and through the fields of 2008 to wonder at and ponder the magical crop circles we saw there...
This Special Edition combines inspirational aerial imagery with though provoking text to create a unique book full of the ambience mood and atmosphere of this amazing phenomenon."
