Ships on the Delaware River

During a trip to visit Dorothy’s family in South Jersey, we had lunch along the Delaware River at the River Winds Restaurant in West Deptford. Out back there’s a path along the river and a circle for cars to park or turn around where Eagle Point Road meets Riverwinds Drive. After lunch we took a walk down to the riverwalk where we had views of the river, the Philadelphia skyline, the Philadelphia Airport, and tank farms.

There were several ships either anchored or moving along the Delaware River. We had a pretty good view of them.

It was an overcast day and the sky and colors were somewhat muted. I processed these in Adobe Lightroom and used Through the Woods presets by Sleeklens for a quick one click edit adjustment. I chose ‘punchy‘ to boost the colors and sky without having to do anything else.
