I've not yet explored the Welsh monuments.
I want to visit Tinkinswood soon.

If you want to fly over the crop circles around Wiltshire next summer I can thoroughly recommend
GS Aviation

I flew over Avebury with them recently and had a great time,

Ps. If I ever meet you in Wales I'll bring a video along to show you.

I live right by Tinkinswood - Although, I haven't been myself - Would be pretty cool to meet up if you liked.  I'm sure i'll be on this forum a lot more now as my interest in it all is growing.

I tried so hard to get to Avebury in the summer but couldn't get there - I'm going to check out GS Aviation now - They look really good! Going to read into it more now.

That sounds great!
Yep - It's pretty ridiculous that i've never even been there yet, lol.
You asked me earlier to pick a crop circle which people believe isn't faked - Is there any that you feel aren't manmade that are more than just a circle that could be 'genuine'?

John Lundberg actually said something that I think you would find interesting that I included in my dissertation:

“If you accept that all crop circles are man made, then it's incorrect to describe our artworks as fakes, they are the original phenomenon, hence they should be described as genuine crop circles, which is what we've 
always argued.” - John Lundberg26

I agree with John.
I think it possible that some single circles are made by something none human, ie weather related as Terence researched and wrote about.

When I was a photographer for Kindred Spirit magazine in the 1990's I went to investigate a sighting in Devon where several people watched a mowed field of hay spin around and rise in the air in a huge ball.
When I got there I photographed huge clumps of straw hanging off overhead power cables.

Can I see this picture.  Sounds pretty cool!
So you don't feel that ANY crop circles more complex than a circle are real (as in not manmade) lol.

[Pete G]

two circles near each other might be a genuine weather effect but three in a row or more are human in origin.

I'll have to climb into the attic to find the photos of the hay on the power lines.
I put all circle related photos away years ago...

If you could do that in the week that would be great - But I know how it is getting to attic objects.
Thanks for all the information and help Pete!

If anybody else could add to the discussion of this post that would be appreciated!
Things seem to be starting to get interesting.

And Terence if you're here... Reply with something magical! haha.

In 2004 this appeared near Silbury hill.
This is after two days work by the team involved


And this after three days.

Just goes to show what man is capable of.
Surely that's man made...

[Pete G]

I like to think of it as people Morris Dancing in the dark in a crop field,

Ps. Most crop circle sites on the internet don't publish half made formations.
Only fully created ones.

I never thought about that - That would be great to add in dissertation!!

[Pete G]

Several pilots I have flown with have told me they have spotted trace lines of formations but didn't twig what they were until the next day when they flew over again and the formation had grown.



this turned into this during 2008

I don't know if you have thought about this but a lot of photos on the internet have been photoshopped.
Mistakes in the field are regularly rubbed out in the published photos.

That's true - I really need to visit one!
Thanks for these crop circle examples.

What's your favorite crop circle? If you have one.
