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 #47, Waiting for better surf in Jaco, Costa Rica. Swells, I left you in California. Like this photo! NEVERMIND!
Day #46 – Snapped from the driver’s seat of my Suzuki Alto rental ‘kei’ car. The sun sets behind a field, somewhere on the Nacoya Peninsula in Costa Rica, as American hip hop plays from the FM radio. Windows down, hair blown, sand between toes, and no worries between my ears – perfect. Like this...
Day #41 – Abstract Theme Week 5 of 7. The color and square cutout shape of this door caught my attention while walking the streets of Jaco, Costa Rica. Since I’ve been stuck in airports for too long – I have some serious PANTS’ing to do now. No artists to reference, just: shape, color, and...

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.

While crashing at Joshua Herron’s place during SEMA I got to hang with his pets – like Chloe the cat. Who behaves more like a dog than a feline. Which earns her bonus points in my dog-loving heart. Like this photo! NEVERMIND!
