DMC - Cropcircles - Cannings Cross, Nr All Cannings, Wiltshire 2007 Formation

I have long admired your excellent crop circle website, and have always wanted to report some important news and maybe I can now at last!

I am renting a narrow boat on the Kennet & Avon canal and we are presently moored near the bridge at All Cannings Wilts last night. There were fantastic orange “foo fighters” in the sky during the middle hours, which kept my wife and I amazed for during the midnight hours. Maybe they were some kind of military technology from Salisbury Plain, but I have never seen the like before! They looked like orange flares and flew south to north almost as fast as aeroplanes!

In the morning I was walking our two dogs as soon as I went over the bridge I spotted it a large crop circle ring in the field to the north of the canal and east of the bridge. That was just the beginning of it!

My wife and I went in right away, and discovered nine circle after circle in a line extending about 90 meters. We saw a lot of wind damage, but no mud-foot prints from the late night rain or other signs of people being there before us. I went back to the boat and celllotaped my cellphone to a bamboo pole so I could take the attached pictures.

My cellphone has software for stitching together photos, but you will probably not be impressed. ;-) The first one shows the largest circle or ring which must be 100 feet across. Then there is a photo of my wife at the western end of the long formation in the smaller of the seven large circles (with a few smaller ones more still to go). Finally a close up the signature “grapeshot” at the extreme western end.

I must say that the field was full of damage from all the recent rain but the circles and rings were still quite clear.
