Windmill Hill (2), nr Avebury, Wiltshire. July 26th 2011
A large and impressive looking design, measuring over 400 feet in diamter, aand consisting of over a hundred individual circles. This formation lies beneath the neolithic settlement of Windmill Hill, said to be the oldest settlement in the country. The farmer seems happy to have visitors here.
West Kennett, Nr Avebury, Wiltshire. July 25th 2011
Situated in the field leading up to the neolithic burial mound of West Kennet long Barrow, which is well worth the walk on a clear sunny day. A simple and elegant set of circles measuring approximately 150 ft in diameter, and strongly resembling an earlier formation at East Kennet in Barley.

Etchilhampton, nr Devizes, Wiltshire. July 25th 2011.
This crop circle in wheat, and measuring approximately 220 ft in diameter displays a double 6 pointed star of david in the centre, and is a beautiful example of six sided geometry.
Roundway Hill (2), nr Devizes, Wiltshire. July 25th 2011
The second of two formations to appear at the same location in two days, unfortunately, the farmer was only prepared to allow visitors to one formation, so this one was cut out. A great shame, as in my opinion, this was the better of the two, with highly unusual details and probably my favourite formation this year. I would have loved to have visited this one!

East Kennett (2), nr Avebury, Wiltshire. July 22nd 2011
This crop circle displays a ten-pointed star consisting of ten five tiered pyramids around the edge, and a very cool spider web effect around the central Mayan headdress design. Measuring around 200 ft in wheat. In my humble opinion, this crop circle has been photographed upside down.
Cherhill Down, nr Yatesbury, Wiltshire. July 20th 2011
A fairly small and humble circlular formation with a very interesting wavy pattern within the lay of the crop.

New Warren Farm nr Lane End, Hampshire. July 14th 2011.
Continuing with a spiral design, this time a triangular one, appearing in Barley which seems to be recovering, hence the slightly fluffy appearance of the formation.

Stonehenge (3), nr Amesbury, Wiltshire. July 13th 2011.
One of three designs reported on the same day, this circular design of light and dark sections in wheat measures approximately 170ft in diameter. Not quite as visually good as perhaps it could have been in my humble opinion.

Windmill Hill, Nr Avebury Trusloe, Wiltshire. July 13th 2011.
The first of two very similar spiral designs to be discovered on July 13th, measuring approximately 320ft x 150 ft in wheat, the other design appeared over 35 miles away near Mere on the Wiltshire/ Dorset border.

Stanton St Bernard (2), nr Alton Barnes. Wiltshire. July 11th 2011.
This unusual design measuring approx 130 ft across was discovered in wheat on 11 July but was quickly cut out by the farmer who has had three previous formations on his land this year and is having to cope with an increasing number of visitors as the season accelerates.

Charlbury Hill, nr Hinton Parva, Wiltshire. June 29th 2011
The quality of the crop looks a bit rough on this one, and the formation itself has an almost free hand child's drawing quality to it, but I really like this one, especially the not so perfect spiral in the middle, who said art had to be perfect anyway.

Allington (2), nr Devizes, Wiltshire. June 28th 2011
This pattern in wheat measures approx. 120 feet in diameter. It displays a central circle surrounded by 3 thin rings too narrow to walk through, each ring has one of the smaller circles upon it. On one edge there is a rainbow pattern of 5 further thin lines.
