The picture is satellite image of irrigated crops and Kakhov irrigation canal. It is captured 7-Aug 2015 by Landsat8 (OLI) under USGS/NASA Landsat Program.  The image is created as True Color Composite, where R – Red Band (0.64 - 0.67 µm), G – Green Band (0.53 - 0.59 µm) and B – Blue Band (0.45 - 0.51 µm). This band combination is suitable for crop monitoring. For emphasizing characteristics, the image was pan-sharpened by panchromatic band. Nonlinear adaptive procedure of contrasting was applied too. •	«Crop circles» appear because of bright plants, which are watered by center pivot irrigation machine.  •	Lines, looks like “hour hand” are irrigation machine equipment. They are rotate around a pivot and watered with sprinklers. •	“Tree rings” are matched  with the damaged elements of the irrigation machine.
