You know those beverage photos that show someone reaching for a cold drink, shot from inside of a fridge? Those are the photos that make you think “Hm, I suddenly feel like an ice-cold beer.” Or soda. Or whatever your drink of choice is.

Photos like that are not as easy to take as cracking open a cold one and drinking it on a hot July afternoon. The setup may require some DIY magic, and Honduran photographer Edin Trinidad knows a neat trick. He has shared with DIYP how he made a fake inside of a fridge that gave him enough room to take great beverage shots!

You may like winter and cold weather, but your drone batteries don’t. It affects their chemical charge and gives you shorter flight time. If you’re typically used to getting around 25 minutes of flight, in cold weather it comes down to about 15, or even less. Dirk Dallas from Adorama TV shares some useful tips for extending the drone’s battery life in cold weather, as well as some tips for flying in winter conditions.

As a photographer who lives and shoots in the Midwest (United States), I know all too well the pain of shooting in frigid temperatures on an annual basis. I’ve tried all kinds of gloves, mittens or hybrids to keep my fingers toasty while shooting, but none have proven to be the perfect pair, leaving at least a few flaws in every method I’ve tried so far.
