Narrative:
Aircraft #1 was conducting ground reference maneuver (turn about a point) at 1000 ft. While in a left turn at 25-30 degrees, turning through south toward east, observed, as it came into view, aircraft #2 breaking away left (towards east). In uncontrolled airspace, everyone needs to be continuously aware of what is happening around them.
