Contract Plating

We managed to get this shoot done the morning after a huge ice storm, it added to the imagery. 

Looking online for a bit of background into Contract Plating Company, it turns up that there are some shady bits of business going on. 

As you will se in these pictures, there is a mulching company operating on this Toxic Site, i pity any unsuspecting person getting mulch for their garden.

Since we took these images, the Stamford city have awarded a $2.8 million dollar remediation...
