As much as I get freaked out by 
facebook's ability to 
advertise directly to my personal interests, I have to admit that it can be artistically beneficial.   Today 
facebook displayed an ad for
 AnOther Magazine (based in London), which "places high fashion in a cultural context to the digital world".  It allowed my discovery of Canadian photographer 
Scott Treleaven (who attended York for a year, transferred to 
OCAD and did an additional 3 years at U of T, according to his online resume).  His photos in 
AnOther are stunning:

This one reminds me of Klimt's 
Judith and the Head of  Holofernes
         "Scott Treleaven is something of a new wave Renaissance man, working in film, collage, drawing and photography. But this marks the Paris-based artist’s grandest entrance into the fashion arena. Stylist Alistair Mackie approached him about collaborating on a14 page story for the spring issue of AnOther Man. The quasi-surreal pictures are inspired by 19 th-century Paris’s "Club des Hashashins"-a bohemian literary group that boasted decadent gents such as Charles Baudelaire and Alexandre Dumas as members."
