I was browsing Strobist this morning and discovered what he termed as the coolest free white background ever. Photographer Mike Schellenberger had figured out that by opening up a standard ice chest, such as a Coleman, turning it on its side, and placing small objects inside, you could use it for a photo background for product shots. It's actually very cool (oops!~) and worth a peek.

Also could double as protection for camera equipment if you're leaving it in the car for extended periods of time during hot days. It doesn't take long for a cars interior to reach over 100 degrees. So if you want to stop to shop or eat just pop your bag inside and you have insulated protection for your equipment.
