Reconstruction of the 2004 Honey Street formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Copy circle 1 to its upper intersection with the vertical centerline. |
| 3. |
| Copy circle 1 five times, to the intersections of circles 1 and 2 and progressively to the intersections of the copied circles with circle 1, to form a flower-of-life pattern. |
| 4. |
| Construct a circle centered at the rightmost intersection of the two rightmost circles 3, passing through the intersections of circle 1 and the vertical centerline. |
| 5. |
| Copy circle 4 five times, to the other corresponding intersections of circles 2 and 3, as shown. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle centered on the vertical centerline, tangent to circles 1 and 2, both at the upper sides. |
| 7. |
| Copy circle 6 to the upper intersection of the two upper circles 5. |
| 8. |
| Construct a circle concentric to upper right circle 5, tangent to circle 7 at the far side. |
| 9. |
| Construct a circle concentric to upper left circle 5, tangent to circle 7 at the far side. |
| 10. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the upper intersection of circles 8 and 9. |
| 11. |
| Draw six rays, from the center of circle 1 to the outermost mutual intersections of circles 4 and 5, and extend these up to circle 10. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 6 six times, to the intersections of circle 10 and rays 11. |
| 13. |
| Construct a circle centered at the right intersection of circle 4 and the horizontal centerline, tangent to the two rightmost circles 5 at the near sides. |
| 14. |
| Copy circle 13 to the lower intersection of lower circle 3 and the vertical centerline. |
| 15. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 14 at the lower side. |
| 16. |
| Copy circle 13 to the intersection of upper ray 11 and circle 15. |
| 17. |
| Copy circle 13 five times, to the intersections of the other rays 11 and circle 15. |
| 18. |
| Construct a circle concentric to upper circle 12, tangent to circle 16 at the upper side. |
| 19. |
| Copy circle 18 five times, to the centers of the other circles 12. |
| 20. |
| Circles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 16, 17, 18 and 19 make up all that is necessary for the reconstruction. |
| 21. |
| Leave out all parts not visible in the formation itself. |
| 22. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 23. |
| ...or to flattened crop. This finishes the reconstruction of the 2004 Honey Street formation. |
| 24. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
