In a small creek, there was an interference pattern set up in the water. As waves from reflections off different rocks came together, they formed a standing wave pattern. Explanation here. Also, here's an interesting simulation. (link) Well, interesting to me...

Interference
Wave interference on Falls Lake.
You can see the nodal lines (places where a crest and trough come together to destructively interfere) and the antinodes (where the waves come together and add together to make a bigger wave). The wind had just shifted and set up interfering waves.

Yay physics!
