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 #116 – There are few days I’d ever use the word “perfect” to describe. Not because of my outlook on life, but because I am incredibly ambitious and no twenty four stretch ever seems to be able to contain all that I want to achieve.
Today was perfect. The clouds were animals. The water was...
Day #115 – While on an automotive video shoot, took a few stills of the great clouds that rolled into Los Angeles today. Los Angeles is usually over-cast and hazy – bare of any kinds of accumulation or signs of percipitation. So today was a Cloudpants day.

Day #113 – “I’m Really Awesome At Being Humble” reads Linhbergh’s t-shirt. Fitting for a man whose metaphorical cube is as large as a desk. Good thing our ladders are upright and to infinity. Storms are inconsequential and cannot distract us from our goals. Now if only my horse would stop licking me and let...
Day #111 – When I was a kid and living in Ohio my family took a vacation to visit New Mexico and Arizona. We visited the Meteor Crater, the Petrified Forest, Santa Fe, Walnut Canyon, and the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon makes most natural wonders look amateur. Its scale was the first element that...
Day #110 – Abandoned house and burned out restaurant in California along HWY 40 en route to the Grand Canyon.

Day #109 – One of the other buildings was this small house. Which had a door less refrigerator in it. I could have spent all day shooting these structures and imagining them in full paint and upkeep.

Day #108 – On the way to Needles, California along HWY40 there is an abandoned town. Boarded up, decaying, covered in ‘no trespassing’ signs… begging to be explored and photographed. Situated along one of the southwest’s many railroad lines – it looks like what once might have been a diner, gas station, and a few...
Day # 106 – OMG are you that guy? I know you. You are Linhbergh. While shooting at El Mirage and the surrounding desert I got the chance to use my 21mm lens. I have always appreciated the composition in classic western movies. Not just long shots. Extreme long shots. A pack of horses running across...
Day #105 – El Mirage dry lake bed had been flooded by rain in January. It seems as the water evaporated, it created a great cracked texture in the dirt. The top layer broke off in pieces like a shell as you walked across it.

Day #104 – Sun flare. The new artpants header was taken by Thuy who is the subject of this photo. Incredibly rad thrift wedding dress. Perfect day.

Day #103 – While I’m not the surgeon general, smoking will kill you – hard. The problem is that smoking looks so incredibly cool. Cigarettes are actually gross as hell and a disgusting habit. When you are exhaling smoke and wearing a cowboy hat… well you are probably the toughest looking human being possible.
Yes, there...
