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.
Day #63 – By ARTPANTs terms we are prohibited from crutching and shooting what we do frequently or easily – cars. You are not looking at the front end of a Mazda 3, but rather the reflection of neon lights in a pearlescent reflective surface. Spiraling and warping down the front like a liquid light waterfall.

- Hustler Hollywood Store huh? ;) I used my CSI skills to figure out where this automotive photographic crime was committed. Crime only because its NOT a Mazda 3... Sick shot squiggly panda man!January 5, 2010 - 9:00 am
- When I saw this I screamed out OMG HE BROKE THE RULES! Then you pulled the pretentious card on me... I hate you, because I have to let this one slide! Love the wisps of color though.January 5, 2010 - 9:08 am
