Art Pants is a 365 day-long-daily-photography-challenge, featuring Will Roegge and Linhbergh Nguyen which was started on November 1st, 2009. Our goal is to each publish one photograph a day for an entire year. But different from usual "photo 365s" out there, we've set ourselves a rules to abide by throughout the year:
1. No photos of anything automobile related
2. No self portraits.
Both of those rules are there to prevent us from going the easy route on taking our daily photos, or in other words, to use a crutch. The purpose of this project is to make the both of us think outside of our usual subjects and expand our creative defaults. The harder we make it upon ourselves, the better off we'll be creatively (or so we hope so!) come Novemeber 1st 2010.
We'll also be having different 'theme weeks' throughout the year. These themes could range from different subject matters; places, portraits, grass, sunrises, landscapes, faces, etc, etc. Or it could even be a technical theme; biggest aperature, smallest aperature, slow shutter speeds, 35mm film, camera phone fast action, etc....
We would love to hear your input throughout the course of the year. If you have ANY ideas for theme weeks or shots you'd like to see, let us know!
Oh, we both love black coffee and we both love Art Pants.
The hardest part about doing a 365 day daily photo challenge is having to carry your DSLR everywhere. The easiest part is being surrounded by interesting settings like the Mitsuwa market place in Los Angeles. I love signage and the Japanese are masters of fascinating and comical semantics.
- been following the daily post - how you like the 7D so far? I've been waiting for Adobe to update the Camera Raw in order to have full support for the 7D Raw files. going to switch to Apple by the end of this year or the beginning of 2010!November 9, 2009 - 8:43 pm

- 7D is great, loving it. Haven't messed around with the video as much as I would have liked. Seems like its always night when I get around to shooting video with it - and the high ISO is decent, but not great. I think tweaking the picture settings will help get an image that will be more receptive to treatment and grading. Focus is a bit tricky on the 3" LCD. Still wise, its bananas. My previous DSLR was a 300D Digital Rebel, 6.3megapixels, and really slow processing - the 7D makes it fun to shoot burst in RAW or JPEG and the image looks amazing.November 9, 2009 - 9:04 pm
- Gah! This photo challenge makes me want a new camera body! I'm kinda over my XTi. =\November 10, 2009 - 2:03 pm
