ART PANTS – A WILL ROEGGE & LINHBERGH YEAR LONG DAILY 365 PHOTO CHALLENGE bio picture

What is Art Pants?

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 100 – Grilled Cheese Stare

Day #100 – Thanks to Dang’s reminder, got to try the Grilled Cheese Truck. Mac N Cheese grilled cheese with a cup of tomato soup. Nom Nom Nom. Delicious for grilled cheese from a truck, but no match for Cleveland’s Melt. While smashing my sandwich, noticed this dog observing my every bite. I think I...

Day 96 – Contact Strip

Day #96 – From the third batch of self-processed 35mm B&W photography – Joshua Herron and blinded by awesome Peter Tarach. My Canon F1 camera body didn’t advance the film properly. Which caused an un-even exposure and black line through part of the images in the roll. In combination with the ameteaur development look it...

Day 95 – Bathroom Process B&W

Day #95 – I picked up supplies to build a simple 35mm b&w processing lab in my bathroom. Its been over 8 years since I processed b&w film in my high school’s dark room. 35mm film still has the latitude and characteristics that make it unique. Plus shooting film forces me to compose thoughtfully and...
