This is a high quality acid free fine art smooth paper of 300gsm, coated with a unique new ink jet receiving layer that gives a semi-gloss finish to the printed image. The coating is undetectable on the paper until the ink is applied, then it bursts forward with a subtle yet vibrant sheen. The surface coating gives a high depth of colour and is tough and highly resistant to scratches.These are a higher quality than our poster prints. They are not glossy prints.

All prints have a 3cm border, for framing. All prints will be signed by Steve Alexander.

Shadow people. Who and what are these beings? Breaking down & categorizing Shadow People.
Image
Interestingly, strange shadows, and just black objects have been seen in and around crop circles over the years by visitors to crop formations. These objects defy explanation. Some have been photographed as well by visitors to crop circles. This interesting article looks into The Shadow People. 

Some think the shadow people (or black objects) are fluid and are like mirrors and reflect what a person projects onto them. They will mould themselves into whatever form a particular persons is thinking about, or whatever theories that person holds about the paranormal, ufos, crop circles, etc.  It's not necessarily bad. This probably says more about the observer than the phenomenon being observed. But it's defiantly not clear. No matter what the crop circles origins are, the circles do seem to attract events which are out of the ordinary. On one hand we have reports of black objects seen in crop circles, and at the other end of the spectrum we have bright balls of light. Many have been photographed, and videoed. So it's defiantly and case of black and white. What does it all mean?

The covers are laminated with gold foil titles. Our books are true collector’s items, treasured by all those who have them.

MAKE A DONATION?

It would be great if all our reqular donaters could make a donation at this moment in time.
Thank you

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 flight costs between £400-£800. The sale of our photographs, Year Books and other items via our online shop helps to offset some of that cost, but 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.

If you feel that you would like to make a donation towards our ongoing recording of the crop circles you can make a donation through our online shop. We would gratefully receive anything that you consider appropriate, no matter how small the amount.

Crop Circles Explained?
Image
This massive 780-foot (238 meters) crop circle appeared in 2001 in the remote area of Milk Hill in Wiltshire, England. The elaborate design is composed of 409 circles that form a pattern called a double, or six-sided, triskelion, which is a motif consisting of three interlocking spirals.

According to some estimates, crop circles appear every week somewhere around the world. The strange circles and patterns appear mysteriously overnight in farmers' fields, provoking puzzlement, delight, and intrigue for both locals and the news media. The circles are mostly found in the United Kingdom, but have spread to dozens of countries around the world in past decades. But who — or what — is making them?

Colin Andrews Taken To Hospital.
Image
Colin was the co-author of the first major crop circle book published in 1991. We wish him well.

In a press release, it has been revealed that Colin Andrews was recently rushed to hospital with a rare condition. The press release is as follows:

On Wednesday 25th, March, our good friend (for many of us), author-researcher, Colin Andrews was taken by ambulance with a very rare and potentially lethal condition called Ludwig’s Angina. He was rushed into Intensive care at Yale Hospital, Connecticut where a surgical team was assembled from among the best in the United States, based at the prestigious University ‘Yale’ hospital. He was placed in Intensive care and is making remarkable progress.

He has been declining media interviews and public presentations for some while, suffering significant fatigue. Multiple abscesses and swellings suddenly exploded across his throat, mouth and neck immediately following a tooth extraction last week.

Colin will be recuperating for some while.

Please Support Us! How you Can Help...
Please help us raise money for our flights to record the crop circles in the UK...
 
We have always been committed to providing the best quality crop circle photography anywhere. Not only as a record of the phenomenon as it unfolds, but also as a legacy for future generations.  High quality images are essential for the future and not only will hold more information, but will also show the magnificence of the crop circles in the landscape and hopefully record the majesty and beauty of the circles for generations who were not there to witness them first hand.
 
The cost of obtaining our high quality images each year is huge (running in to thousands of pounds). We hire a small helicopter and use high-end digital SLRs to record the images. While it is true that there are cheaper methods for photographing the circles, there is a more damaging cost to the quality of pictures possible using there methods (drones etc.) where using expensive digital cameras would not be practical or possible.
 
Because of our commitment to quality and our awareness of costs, we regularly review our practices and at the moment (as of 2015) we remain convinced that our current operating methods allow us to get the best images possible.
 
It is through the sales of our year books, photos and other merchandise that meeting the cost of our photography possible.
