Attached photographs (1)
inferred link These pictures did not come with a source record of this formation. Each one is a single-photograph archive entry whose own date and place the index matched to this formation; nothing about the formation itself comes from them. The rule, the score and the evidence are printed with each record so the link can be checked, and the credit stays with the photograph.
Date
12 August 2014, to day precision. What a source records is the day a formation was found and reported.

This very simple ringed circle has the distinction of being the largest crop circle to appear in Wiltshire this summer. The large ring measures approximately (and surprisingly) 300ft in diameter. The centre circle measures approximately 30-40ft.

While researching the yearly rise of Sirius, I found this information on the forthcoming Venus-Jupiter conjunction on August 18th, 2014. EarthSky New Item
While both are important events, the yearly rise of Sirius is known to forecast Nile floods, and heavy rains. It began July 26, 2014. This particular circle shows the conjunction in perfect metaphoric terms.

Geometry
4 diagram file(s) on this page. measured from the diagram itself, and experimental: the extractor's rotational order is right on 88.8 % of a 200-diagram hand-labelled set against a gate of 90 %, so read a number here beside the picture rather than instead of it.
| diagram | rotational symmetry | elements | rings | mirror | fill |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| cc 53f7e7db | ≈ continuous (concentric circles) | 2 | 2 | 0.993 | 0.0636 |
Experimental, and marked ≈ wherever it appears. These numbers are read off a drawing, not off the field: the extractor's rotational order agrees with a hand-labelled set on 88.8 per cent of 200 diagrams against a gate of 90 per cent, its element count is within one on 97.5 per cent, and its ring count is not calibrated at all. Nothing in the analysis tree is derived from the rotational order while that gate is unmet.
Diagrams that look like these: cc 53f7e7db · ccc e5aaee91 · ccc 53f7e7db— the nearest by perceptual hash. The whole archive is browsable by shape in the shape section, and this formation's own diagrams go straight into that grid: show them in the grid.
