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 229 – Granville Island 4

Day #229 – The architecture of downtown Vancouver is comprised of blue & green glass, metal, and concrete. I find that it shares many design similarities to late Seattle architecture. The clouds dispersing in wave length like energy from being the tall buildings is a nice look. ARTPANTS 7 people like this post. NEVERMIND!

Day 227 – Granville Island 2

Day #227 – I like this electric box for a number of reasons. The oversized electric bolt, the light blue color, the nice primary color mix with the yellow pole, and most importantly because of the most hardcore warning sticker I’ve ever seen – a man being blasted by a electric bolt. Effective or over...

Day 216 – Photos from the Phone

Day #216 – Sometimes the best camera is the one you have on you. I don’t lug my DSLR around everywhere I travel. That would be over kill and make me look like a tourist, which I am, but try to be stealth about. This Shepard Fairey wheat paste poster is on main street in...

Day 212 – Van City a balcony study

Day #212 – From my balcony, with the 200 f2.8 – studying the sunset. Similar to the ships that adorned the Manhattan Beach pacific view that my former balcony faced. Looks like some nasty chromatic monsters on the crane. ARTPANTS 2 people like this post. NEVERMIND!

Day 211 – Night Air, Streets below

Day #211 – In LA I slept with the windows open and between cars on highland, the sound of waves from the ocean below. In Van City I sleep with the windows open to the sound of traffic. At least the air quality in Vancouver is better. ARTPANTS 2 people like this post. NEVERMIND!

Day 210 – 8th floor with a view

Day #210 – Here’s a glimpse into what I do, edit, then edit more. Note* the Keep Drifting Fun x NOS and Speedhunters stickers. Occasionally, I like to set up a tripod and shoot the sun dipping behind the mountains and cityscape of Vancouver. I rent an apartment, don’t own jack. I also own a...
