2019 Clear Wood formation
|
Reconstruction of the 2019 Clear Wood formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. |
| 3. |
| Construct the inscribed circle of triangle 2. |
| 4. |
| Construct the inscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 3, pointing up. |
| 5. |
| Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 4. |
| 6. |
| Draw the connecting line between the upper righthand angular point of hexagon 4 and the lefthand intersection of circle 3 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 7. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the intersection of line 6 and the vertical centerline. |
| 8. |
| Copy circle 7 to the lefthand intersection of circle 3 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 9. |
| Construct the "two-points" circle (defined by the two end-points of a centerline) between the center of circle 8 and its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline. |
| 10. |
| Construct a circle centered at the upper intersection of circle 7 and the vertical centerline, tangent to the upper righthand side of hexagon 4. |
| 11. |
| Copy circle 10 to the center of circle 1. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 10 to the top of triangle 2. |
| 13. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the intersection of circle 12 and the righthand side of triangle 2. |
| 14. |
| Copy circle 9 to the lefthand intersection of circle 13 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 15. |
| Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 10. |
| 16. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 15 at the upper side. |
| 17. |
| Copy circle 16 to the top of triangle 2. |
| 18. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the intersection of circle 17 and the righthand side of triangle 2. |
| 19. |
| Construct a circle, passing through the intersection of the righthand side of triangle 2 and the horizontal centerline, and passing through the upper and lower intersections of circle 3 and the vertical centerline. |
| 20. |
| Construct the "two-points" circle between the center of circle 9 and its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline. |
| 21. |
| Construct a circle, passing through the center of circle 20, and passing through the upper and lower intersections of circle 3 and the vertical centerline. |
| 22. |
| Copy circle 20 to its lefthand intersection with the horizontal centerline, and move this circle (copy and delete original) to its own corresponding intersection. |
| 23. |
| Construct a circle, passing through the center of circle 22, and passing through the upper and lower intersections of circle 5 and the vertical centerline. |
| 24. |
| Circles 1, 5, 7, 8, 11, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, and 23, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 25. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 26. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 27. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2019 Clear Wood formation. |
| 31. |
| The final result, matched with two aerial images. |
