Reconstruction of the 2005 Golden Ball Hill formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Create a "flower-of-life"-pattern, by copying circle 1 six times, first to its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline, then to its consecutive intersections with the copied circles. |
| 3. |
| Construct the circumscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 1, pointing to the right. |
| 4. |
| Construct the circumscribed circle of hexagon 3. |
| 5. |
| Copy circle 4 six times, to the centers of circles 2. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle, tangent to the two rightmost sides of hexagon 3, and tangent to the upper and lower left circles 5 at the near sides, as shown. |
| 7. |
| Copy circle 6 to its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline. |
| 8. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 7 at the far side. |
| 9. |
| Copy circle 8 six times, to the centers of circles 2. |
| 10. |
| Copy circle 6 seven times, to the center of circle 1 and to the centers of circles 2. |
| 11. |
| Circles 1, 2, 4, 5, 9 and 10 make up the necessary parts of the reconstruction. |
| 12. |
| Leave out all superfluous parts not visible in the formation itself. |
| 13. |
| Get the final result by colouring all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 14. |
| ...or to flattened crop. This concludes the reconstruction of the 2005 Golden Ball Hill formation. |
| 15. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
