Throughout the summer months every year, in fields of oilseed rape, barley and wheat, a rash of ever more elaborate circles and designs appears. Lucy Pringle has been photographing and researching crop circles for nearly twenty years. She here presents a catalogue of her awe-inspiring aerial photographs taken across the south of England, guaranteed to amaze believers and sceptics alike.

This review is from: Crop Circles: Art in the Landscape (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful book . . . the crop circle photographs are meditations in and of themselves . . . their beauty transcends all logical concerns for their origins. Perusing these pictures diminishes the media controversy to abject pettiness: The heart is filled. The mind is stilled. I merely give thanks.
