Esteban Palazuelos treats us to some beautiful, vintage styled, fashion shots for the April 2011 issue of GQ Spain. The clothing, textures, and setting all help to give these photos that great vintage look.
The Alphabet Series is a part of Drew Europeo's 365 Days Projects. She wonderfully mixes lines, shapes and color to create different letters of the alphabet. Each one has a unique look but fits well inside the series. She also has a project that explores lines and geometry and a project that explores pen and markers as part of the 365 Days Projects. You can check those out and other non-commercial works at Grafikas. She also has a site for commercial work, a Twitter, and a Facebook accounts.
Julie de Waroquier's work has a whimsical fantasy like feel to them. Each one has the ability to grab you and pull you into its own world. She uses a great sense of color, compostion and subject matter to create a unique and breathtaking style.
Swedish photographer Emil Nyström created these unique portraits for his baby girl Signhild. Instead of a child's normal embarrassing photos, she'll have these to look forward to!
Mari Kasurinen has a knack for turning My Little Pony dolls into anything she wants. She's turned them into everything from Lady Gaga to Skeletor. These ponies have incredible likenesses to the subjects they are modeled after and each one is done with great care and detail. Check out more of her ponies on Flickr.
Epic. That is the one word I would use to describe this series by Damien Vassart. The combination of the crisp edges of the towering glass buildings with the fluid and organic movement of the clouds is an epic photo combination. The use of black and white creates a stark contrast between the buildings and sky, and also amplifies the amazing reflections in the glass.
Here's a great set of double expsoures by Andre de Freitas. I find double exposures extremely fascinating. It gives a glimpse into two completely separate but intertwined worlds. Whenever I see them, I try to imagine what went through the photographer's mind when combining these images. I am especially curious about the first image in the set. It feels like there is a beautiful tale waiting to be told by this image.
Here is some great artwork by Lawrence Yang. The surprising thing is painting is only a hobby for Lawrence. He is an information architect by trade. Lawrence is heavily influenced by graffiti art and traditional Chinese painting. His works are mostly created with ink, marker and watercolor. Here's how Lawrence describes his paintings:
"Lawrence's paintings make use of color to communicate atmosphere and emotion, and they are concerned primarily with creating order out of chaos (and vice versa)."

Philipp Klinger has an eye for beautiful lines, shapes and patterns. In this series, he captures one of the most iconic cities in the world: Paris, France, and does it great justice. Instead of taking conventional shots of the city, Philipp goes out and captures the things you might never notice.
