Reconstruction of the 2011 Milk Hill formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. |
| 3. |
| Copy circle 1 to the top of triangle 2. |
| 4. |
| Copy circle 1 to the lower righthand angular point of triangle 2. |
| 5. |
| Copy circle 1 to the lower lefthand angular point of triangle 2. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, tangent to the vertical centerline. |
| 7. |
| Copy circle 6 to the center of circle 5. |
| 8. |
| Copy circle 6 to the center of circle 3. |
| 9. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 3, passing through the upper intersection of circles 5 and 6. |
| 10. |
| Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 4. |
| 11. |
| Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 5. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 6 to the center of circle 1. |
| 13. |
| Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 1. |
| 14. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 8 at the lower side. |
| 15. |
| Copy circle 14 to the righthand intersection of circle 13 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 16. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 15 at the righthand side. |
| 17. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 9 at the lower side. |
| 18. |
| Copy circle 17 to the righthand intersection of circle 16 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 19. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 18 at the righthand side. |
| 20. |
| Copy circles 16 and 19 three times, to the angular points of triangle 2. |
| 21. |
| Copy circle 17 to the righthand intersection of circle 12 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 22. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 21 at the lefthand side. |
| 23. |
| Copy circle 14 to the righthand intersection of circle 22 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 24. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 23 at the lefthand side. |
| 25. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 3, tangent to the lower side of triangle 2. |
| 26. |
| Copy circle 25 to the center of circle 1. |
| 27. |
| Circles 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 20, 22, 24 and 26, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 28. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 29. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 30. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2011 Milk Hill formation. |
| 31. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
