Dear all,

I am struggeling to place an object (a red circle) using polar 
coordinates with respect to a chosen center called ground.

Any ideas?

Here is the snipped:

     \documentclass[]{beamer}
     \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
     \usepackage[english,german]{babel}
     \usepackage{xcolor}
     \usepackage{graphicx}

     \usepackage{tikz,pgfplots}
     \usetikzlibrary{positioning,fadings,patterns}

     \usepackage{tikz,pgfplots}
     \usetikzlibrary{positioning,fadings,patterns}

     \tikzfading[name=fade inside,
             inner color=transparent!80,
             outer color=transparent!30]


     \begin{document}
        \begin{tikzpicture}[scale=0.5]
            \draw [help lines] (0,0) grid (23,5);
            \coordinate(ground)   at (2,2) {};
            \draw [very thick] (ground) circle (1.2);
            \shade [ball color=white,path fading=fade inside] (ground) 
circle (1.5);
            \coordinate (ov1) at (0:1.5) {};
            \shade [ball color=red] (ov1) circle (0.2);
        \end{tikzpicture}
     \end{document}

I have tried to place several +s in front of the polar coordinates, but 
this does not show any effect.

Thank you in advance.

Elke
