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 273 – FOUND!

On my recent trip to the UK, I learned where Canada gets their horrifically intense warning signs from… none other than the motherland, England. Yes, if you mess around inside of a power box, a lightning bolt will hit you in your sleep. Or better yet, Zoro will try and cut a “z” into you...

Day 113 – Abandoned House

There’s a story to everything in life. Even the simplest to the most intriguing of things have something to tell. Take this abandoned house for example. This house looks as though it was just recently abandoned. All the other buildings in the area looked as though they’ve been abandoned a lot longer than this house...

Day 79 – Clouds

This past week, the greater Southern California area has experienced a rare and strange natural phenomenon that makes the streets shiny. Apparently, it has something to do with this gray substance that has blanketed the sky these past few days. Citizens of the Los Angeles area have panicked. Some been so emotionally distraught that they...

Day 53 – Holiday Travelin’

Here I was last night hurrying to get to the airport a whole two hours before my flight. I feared for the dreaded holiday travel queue but only to be greeted with orderly quietness, and an almost empty airport terminal. Surreal is the word that comes to mind. Like this photo! NEVERMIND!

Day 51 – Pops

Day #51 – For day number fifty I shot my mom on the phone. A day later, I followed my dad around with the Canon 7D until he smiled. He was wondering why I was shooting so many photos of him. I think I’m going to stay in the mini-theme of my family and taking...

Day 40 – Abstract Theme 4 of 7

Day #40 – Abstract Theme 4 of 7. Linhbergh’s first abstraction referenced the work of Piet Mondrian. Mondrian’s linear composition, flat white background, and use of primary colors is simply captivating. At dinner…yes dinner, I noticed the ceiling was exposed. The wiring, piping, and lighting being visible – and creating an impressive intersection of lines. ...
